We aim to improve local community connections in the Chilwell area through gardening and growing food together in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way.
We welcome all local residents of all ages, abilities, cultures and gardening skills.
Our garden is situated in the northern end of Claremont Park at 23 Mervyn St, Newtown.
We hope to start operating from late 2025.
