Want to help grow a garden for Dagenham?
Join us in embracing eco-friendly gardening practices to cultivate our own food! Over the next year, we will be running a garden club, focusing on sustainable methods to nurture our plants and community. Here's what we have planned:
* Regular Gardening Workshops: Learn about eco-friendly growing and garden design.
* Mini-Allotments: Available for local community members to garden in their own time outside of scheduled workshops.
Seedling and Harvest Sharing: Exchange plants and produce with fellow gardeners.
* Healthy Cooking Classes: Prepare nutritious meals using our garden's seasonal harvests.
* We invite you to be part of this neighbourhood green initiative!
For spring, we will be sowing edible seeds, transplanting seedlings, caring for seedlings, clearing the soil, and planting.
After the workshops, participants can enjoy the freedom to tend their own garden patches using our on-site greenhouse and gardening tools throughout the rest of the calendar year. You'll also become part of a new community of Dagenham growers, with more workshops and opportunities to get involved coming soon!
The White House Garden Club is led by Chauntelle Lewis, the Barefoot Planter - gardener, community leader, and East London local.
Young people under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a parent/carer at all times.
