Community forest garden livestream

JR Jake Rayson Public Seen by 67

Next week's livestream Wed 17th Feb 10am is about setting up a community forest garden. I'm creating the beginnings of a community in the new eco-home development I've been landscaping, with a view to involving the residents in the design, creation and maintenance of a 1 acre on-site forest garden with allotments and children's play area.

I'm keen to hear from people who have already set up and run a community forest garden, there's a zoom meeting at 10.30am, all welcome.

Hope to see some of you there 🙂

Hi Bevis, that is a very kind offer, thank you. My actually forest garden is quite neglected, this is the year when it gets back on track. My main other projects are getting the eco-homes community forest garden off the ground, and Garden Wild, which is promoting the use of UK native wild flowers gardenwild.org.uk. Plus the weekly livestream, online courses etc etc! 😆

Hi Jake, I'm a long way from west Wales, but would love to hear how your project develops. I have been growing a FG in west Dartmoor for the last 10 years. If I can offer any remote form of help then please let me know. Good luck, and please keep me posted.
