Wellness Garden

An activity with South Essex Action Team

Activity date: Friday 6th March 2026

Start time: 11:00
Finish time: 14:00

Activity description

Our wellness garden is a growing sanctuary designed to nurture both community wellbeing and local wildlife — and we’d love you to be part of it. Join us to plant wildflower seeds for pollinators, build a compost bin, and create habitats that flourish year after year. No experience is needed — just enthusiasm. Get involved, get muddy, and help us grow a space that supports biodiversity, connection, and wellbeing. Contact the local project officer to express interest before the session.
