Community garden

Would you like to

• grow your own vegetables but you don’t have an allotment? 
• spend time gardening with local people and share the produce? 
• teach your children how to grow veg and support local wildlife?

If your answer is yes, do come and join us in the Lee Manor Society community garden!

The sessions for the autumn and winter 2026 are as follows:

All Sundays, 2.30-4.30:

20th September
4th October
18th October
8th November
29th November
20th December
10th January 2027
31st January 2027
21st February 2027

We get together once or twice per month in the growing season, although you can have access to the garden anytime if you want to do some sowing, watering or harvesting. Gardening sessions are posted on the blackboard on the gate in Micheldever Road. No gardening experience necessary.

We are also looking for someone to help repair one of our raised flower beds. If you have carpentry skills, please get in touch.

Our community garden was set up in 2010 at the Burnt Ash end of Micheldever Road. It is run by volunteers and contains several raised beds, which have produced amongst other things kidney beans, onions, garlic, potatoes, courgettes, blackberries and black tomatoes! We also have some flowers and bushes to encourage wildlife.

You can plant whatever you like and we are keen to experiment.  All welcome, young and old.
