This is an opportunity to learn about basic skills such as planting seeds, compost , potting up plants etc. and ask about all aspects of gardening – no previous experience required.

We want to tailor this training day to your needs – there is an opportunity to request particular gardening skills training in the booking form – and we will do our best to provide this on the day.

Come and find out about Scotland's first organic allotment site and its Community Health Project. Lots of activities for all, with a harvest theme. In conjunction with the Soil Association's Organic Food Festival.

Workshops in fundraising, community cooking, winter activities, challenging behaviour, allotments and councils, maximising biodiversity, making money from your project.
A chance to speak to a variety of funders.
A great opportunity to network and meet likeminded people.
Learn from others through case studies on social enterprise, food growing and reseeding communities.
Open to anyone interested or involved in community, therapeutic and allotment gardens.

Take a journey from plot to plate! Harvest fresh ingredients from the allotment then cook up and enjoy a feast in our outdoor kitchen (covered space available if wet!).
