Growing Together Rochford
was opened in January 2017 utilising the greenspace surrounding an Eco Building. Based on the successful model used at our
other gardens the project has included clearing the overgrown grounds, planting
an orchard area, building raised vegetable beds and planters, installing
seating areas and creating a wildlife habitat with bug hotels and bird
feeders. The half-acre site surrounds an
Eco Building, which is a multifunctioning centre for adults with mental health
problems, learning disabilities and physical disabilities.
Running this garden has allowed us to offer support to members of the local community with mental health conditions and learning disabilities.
Growing Together Rochford runs every Friday for members.
We will be running a ‘Dig It’ youth
group for children aged between 10 – 15 every Friday evening between 6.00pm –
7.30pm from February 2018.
