Location information

All sessions take place at the farm. Please note the site has no volunteer parking, is a no smoking zone and support dogs on lead only. Many areas of the site have uneven ground, inclines and cobbled stones, which may make access more challenging for people with certain mobility requirements. The majority of the community gardens are outdoor and uncovered. We encourage participants to discuss any access requirements with us in advance so we can explore reasonable adjustments and provide further information about the site. There is running water and a basic bathroom at present.
