Friends of the Dr George Rice Community Garden

What you will be doing

We are looking for volunteers to help with general gardening tasks and particularly at the current time to help manage the hedge on the Robin Hood Lane side of the garden and cut back any overgrowth. We have a compost bin on site for any green waste. Volunteers will need to bring their own tools and gloves. Hours and times are flexible to suit the volunteer. The community garden What's App group will be used to co-ordinate tasks. We would be very grateful for any help offered with this.

What's in it for you?

Help create a green space for the community to enjoy. Connect with the seasons in a natural environment and join a team of volunteers working to bring new life to a previously overgrown and unused patch of land. Work on your own or join in with our group volunteering sessions.
