Connect with other community members, spend time in nature, pick up skills with clay or wood, learn from our gardeners, eat delicious food and enjoy our beautiful green oasis all through 2025.
The last summer of Story Garden is upon us and we want to see the garden more full and more vibrant than ever. Alongside our normal Community Growing and activities like Family Saturdays, we are launching a special series over the spring and summer that will highlight some of the brilliant skills and activities we lead within our generators programme and offer them to a wider audience. A full list of activities will be announced over the coming months, so come back to this page to see the full schedule of events and booking links as they come available.
