A birds eye view of the community gardens

THE COMMUNITY GARDENS

Cultivate built the first community gardens here back in 2015, making derelict space productive and beautiful. We have continued their work, building micro plots for individual growers, a glasshouse and shed. One of the volunteers has constructed a beautiful arbour and another of Cultivate’s original volunteers still maintains the fruit bushes and wildlife area.

The ramp makes the garden and café now accessible to wheelchairs.

We are so grateful to all our funders that have helped transform this space; Local Places for Nature (Powys County Council), The National Gardens Scheme, Grow Wild (Kew), Social Farms and Gardens (Tyfu Powys Project). We have loved working with all these groups on different parts of this project. As the building work comes to an end we are still creating new opportunities for growing and wildlife – making the whole site more attractive.

How you can be involved. Take a plot (no vacancies at the moment), volunteer in the garden on Mondays afternoons, 2.00 – 4.00, come and relax with a cup of coffee in this peaceful space! (garden always open).
