Bush Hill Park
Bush Hill Park Station Community Garden is a diverse patchwork of ideas contributed by our volunteers. It features a vegetable bed teeming with an assortment of delicious produce, a wildflower meadow, a hedgerow which, once fully established, we hope will become a haven for local wildlife, and a herb garden, all interwoven with beautiful flowers that brighten commuters' journeys.
The volunteers have dedicated so much time to this garden and love sharing it with both commuters and the wider Bush Hill Park community. Throughout the year, we run weekly volunteer sessions where you’ll learn about seed saving, propagating, compost management and biodiversity surveying. Don’t let a lack of gardening experience hold you back, as our aim is to have a garden where all skill levels are welcome and learning is encouraged.
We meet Thursdays 10:00 - 12:00. Sign up via the Join a Garden Group link on the home page or email juanpablo@energygarden.org.uk to get involved.
