About this Event
Join us at St. John’s Community Garden in Hoxton, London, for an exciting day of hands-on volunteering! This is your chance to help transform an overgrown garden into a thriving green space for the local community. Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or have never picked up a trowel before, everyone is welcome—and we’ll provide all the tools and guidance you need!
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Trimming back overgrown vegetation to bring more light and life into the space 🌿
- Helping to install a brand-new (second hand) pond to attract wildlife and enhance the garden’s ecosystem 🐸
- Connecting with a friendly group of volunteers while making a positive impact on the community 🌟
Why It’s Important:
Creating and maintaining green spaces isn’t just good for the community—it’s vital for nature and the environment. By trimming back overgrowth and installing a pond, we’re helping to:
- Provide a habitat for local wildlife, like frogs, insects, and birds. 🐦🐝
- Improve air quality and biodiversity in an urban area. 🌳🌍
- Create a space where people can reconnect with nature, which has proven mental and physical health benefits.
Your efforts will directly contribute to making the garden a thriving haven for both people and wildlife!
