BIG Garden needs support!

The Big Friendly Gardeners volunteers group at High Woods Country Park's BIG Garden project now have a facebook page so you can keep up to date with what's going on there.

NEWS FLASH! This unique 10 year old community project loses funding in September 2017, and needs all the local support it can get. Please go and visit, apply to volunteer, get involved! There are numerous well evidenced health and well being benefits from being involved in community food growing including from the obvious exercise involved, eating more fresh organic food, the social support experienced, being in the sun and learning new skills, gaining knowledge about the seasons and nature, wildlife etc.


The project is just a short walk from the Visitor Centre off Turner Rd and is open Monday to Thursday and alternate Saturdays 10am to 1pm. Saturday dates online here.
