Parkfield Community Garden
Parkfields offers a space for people to meet, learn to grow food, create habitats for wildlife, observe nature and play. As well as an orchard the site has a polytunnel, raised beds, skill share and natural play space. Volunteers worked to reclaim a bramble and bindweed covered site to create a space for learning and play for the local community. We are aiming to offer sessions for childminders, afterschool childrens groups and weekend courses as well as yoga, art, gardening and permaculture classes

Based in North Kingston occupying a secluded corner of an allotment site Parkfields offers a space for people to meet, learn to grow food, create habitats for wildlife, observe nature and play. It is a Permaculture design in progress. As well as an orchard the site has a polytunnel, food growing, skill share and natural play spaces. Volunteers worked to reclaim a bramble and bindweed covered site to create a space for connecting with nature, learning and play for the local community.

We have helped Parkfields in the past and they have developed projects that need more muscle. This time we are tasked with helping with general gardening activities and, weather permitting, dismantling a yurt.

If you are free to help you will get a good gardening work-out and help create something amazing.
