Wild Roots Community Garden
Our mission is to cultivate a thriving, inclusive community, connected to nature through curiosity, creativity and lifelong learning. We believe community thrives when we come together to create nature-based solutions to modern day challenges, fostering resilience, solidarity and a shared joy in making a difference.

Please meet at Wild Roots community garden. The garden is situated close to Stepney Bank Stables,

There is no group run element of this task.

For the task of today, we are clearing some rubble, bricks and weeds from a flower bed. Gloves will kindly be provided by Wild Roots.

The flower bed will be used to create a 'cut flower bed'. Wild Roots would like to be able to donate these flowers to hospices and people in the local area.

The nearest toilet to this task is Byker Morrisons.

As overwhelming and too much and unsolvable it feels right now, it will be ok.
