Garden

Welcome to a community garden space for all, where local residents, groups and garden projects can grow together. A hidden sanctuary in the heart of Muirhouse, here you’ll find a play area, sand pits, gardening plots, homegrown fruit and veg for our Café and plenty of places to relax in nature.

Garden Redevelopment

Our half-acre garden flourished for 8 years as a valued community resource, incorporating food growing, play, areas for nature and integrated artworks. However, since January 2022, our garden has been partially absorbed by the construction site for our capital redevelopment project.

This has provided an opportunity to revitalise our garden, to redesign it to make sense of our new building and adjoining community hub. Our new garden will incorporate the best of the old, focusing on play, biodiversity and socialising, and will continue to provide a quality greenspace in a community with noted environmental neglect, lack of open-access community spaces and poorly maintained play-areas.

It will offer opportunities for local residents to learn gardening and other practical skills, an outdoor setting for creative groups and be an inspiring space for meeting and relaxing in, for our building users and the wider community.
