Share the love

The sun was shining for John, Tracey and Lindy moving the last of the pile of wood chip to the forest garden at Thorlands ☀️ Extra shout out to John for voluntarily picking up litter surrounding the woodchip too!


This task supported
Thorlands Garden
The first Camberwell market garden in over fifty years

Thorlands Gardens is a food growing club based on an east Lambeth housing estate, in Camberwell. There was a shared vision to move forward with a zero miles food project on unused and unloved brownfield spaces. There was an understanding that residents of all ages could volunteer simply for the value that experience gives to individual wellbeing. There is also the added bonus of sharing the fruits of the labour, which in this case is healthy produce, such as vegetables, salads, herbs, and edible flowers.
