Our Gardening Groups offer the opportunity to really enjoy nature and develop skills and knowledge around planting, growing, nurturing and harvesting. Members choose what to grow and we then bring fresh produce back to the Den for everyone to enjoy. The garden is a place where members have a real choice about what they would like to do, whether it is helping to feed the hens or learning new photography skills and uploading pictures onto our Instagram.
