About this Event
Mobile Garden is a community growing space where local residents, schools and community groups can come connect with nature in the middle of Hackney.
Come join one of our gardening sessions to learn food growing, nature crafts, garden care and how to build garden features. We have sessions happening monthly at the moment, led by our team of Community Gardeners.
These activities are FREE and suitable for adults with any level of experience. Please wear closed toe shoes and sensible clothes that you don't mind getting mucky. All equipment and tools are provided.
