Green Community
Canbury Community Garden
Nestled away behind the Canbury Secret cafe, the Canbury Community Garden has been a vibrant hub of green-minded community activity for over eight years. Thanks to its dedicated members which include three head gardeners and five “Chicken Collective” members, it has blossomed into a cherished space with a wonderful range of activities for local people to get involved in.
The garden truly comes alive during its weekend openings when regular volunteers work alongside anyone who wants to lend a hand transforming the space, tending to plants, and sharing gardening knowledge. It's a hands-on opportunity to learn, contribute, and connect with nature.
Younger people are also welcomed to visit and explore, fostering an early appreciation for the environment and the joy of growing things. It's a delightful way to inspire the next generation of gardeners.
Adding a unique charm to the garden is the Chicken Collective, a group of dedicated people who lovingly care for five resident chickens, providing fresh eggs and a wonderful educational experience about animal care and sustainable living.
If you're looking to get your hands dirty, connect with like-minded individuals, or simply enjoy a tranquil green space, get in touch with the team via their Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/canburycommunitygarden
