About the Community Garden
Brondesbury Park Energy Garden is a space for food growing, conservation and community. The garden was established in 2016, and has grown into a group that has transformed a track-side space into a green hub in Queens Park where local volunteers meet weekly to garden. Our vegetable beds, payths and other amenities are in need of renovating.
