Activity description

Join us every Friday as we live the Good Life by sowing, growing, and harvesting our own food. Feel the thrill of uncovering tasty potatoes, parsnips, and carrots. Enjoy the taste of freshly picked peas and savour those fabulous strawberries. It doesn't get better than this. We have a growing space with accessible raised beds right next to the pavilion building. All tools and equipment are provided. We also go for a nature walk around Rowheath Park whilst we immerse ourselves in the sights and sounds that this valuable green space has to offer. Bird ID walks are also undertaken along with traditional conservation activities.
