Located on Furnace Pit Industrial Estate, our community garden is where Shildon Alive began! We run sessions with school children, community groups and other organisations. Community members have the opportunity to grow their own produce in the garden and learn how to take it ‘from plot to plate’. Training opportunities are available for garden volunteers, as well as trips to other community gardens to learn new skills and network. Groups currently taking place at the Garden are:
Wednesday: Adult Gardening Session – 12:30pm-2:30pm (Winter) and 1:30pm-3:30pm (Summer)
Friday: Little Growers (Parent and Toddler) – 10:00am-12:00pm
