Welcome to Glengall Wharf Garden

Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, the garden is currently closed to the public. We will still be farming fresh food for the local foodbank, in line with government protocol and advice.

Glengall Wharf Garden is a peaceful green oasis at the east side of Burgess Park, in north Peckham, managed by and for local people using sustainable growing techniques and permaculture to develop the site as a place to build skills, community and well being for all our gardeners.

The Garden includes food growing beds, a forest garden, a healing yurt, beehives, chickens, ponds and a campfire. Click here for a site plan
