Borage and Marigold enjoying some time in nature 🌾 If you’d like some thoughts on how we can engage with nature during lockdown, then join our mailing list ✉️ You’ll get a fortnightly email full of things to read, watch, do and listen to 💚 Follow the link in our bio 🌱

🌿 Connecting with nature during Covid-19 🌿 Since the garden is closed during the pandemic, we are finding new ways to stay connected. We are launching a fortnightly newsletter rounding up all the ways we can still engage with nature and our community during this crisis 💚 Link in bio to sign up - the first one just went out and it features bird spotting 🐦 foraging wild garlic 🌾 and more!

Because of Covid-19, we have closed the garden to the public. But we are still carrying out some essential food growing. For several years we’ve grown food for the local food bank in Peckham. As the economic impact of coronavirus starts to hit, and more people lose their income, we think it’s more important than ever to keep doing this. We’re carrying out food growing with a small number of core volunteers who are following government guidelines around social distancing in the garden and are working to strict hygiene rules. You can find out more about our Covid-19 food safety policy on our website (link in bio) 🥬🥕🍅 Image: @rosalieschweiker

Happy Easter from the Glengall Wharf hens x 🐥💐💖

⚠️Important info about the garden and Coronavirus⚠️ We are sad to announce that the garden is closing to the public due to Coronavirus. This means our Monday, Thursday and Sunday sessions and all upcoming events are cancelled. This was a painful decision for us to make but the safety and health of our community comes first ❤️ We know that the garden provides a space for people to come together and make connections. So we are thinking about ways we can support each other and the community we have built here. This could look like a weekly hangout space or something similar. If you have any ideas, please DM us. In the meantime, stay safe. If you feel unsure of how to help, you can donate to your local food bank or join a mutual aid network. If you would like to keep supporting the garden while we’re closed you can become a Friend of the garden for a few pounds a month - link in bio. We will miss you while we are closed, but can’t wait to see you all again when it’s safe to do so 💚
