Volunteer and Visit

Volunteer and Open Days

Olden Garden is open to the public. Volunteer days are open to everyone, not just Garden members. New volunteers are welcome. Gardening experience is not necessary. Join us for coffee and cake/biscuits, make new friends and learn more about the Garden. Or just walk in our woodland and relax on the patio. Families welcome. Just drop in.

Come and volunteer on Tuesdays any time between 10am – 4pm. Maria, our gardener, will offer a variety of tasks.

Or come to a Saturday volunteer day – on the third Saturday of the month when our gardener Caroline will guide you.

Remember to wear appropriate footwear.

Our accessible toilet will be open.

If you would like further information about volunteering please email oldengarden1@gmail.com

Thank you to our wonderful volunteers!

Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who have been helping our gardeners Maria and Caroline. Volunteers have now tidied up after the stormy weather and are working in the woodland, reducing unwanted saplings and cutting some of the ivy growing on trees. We have planted a plum tree generously donated by a neighbour and we sowed wild flowers in the meadow.

More volunteers are welcome – every Tuesday and the third Saturday in the month. Coffee and cake provided!

Come and volunteer in the Garden on Saturday 26th February

Come along and join Caroline, our gardener, on Saturday 26th February, any time between 10am-4pm. Could you help with some volunteer tasks, including rose and apple tree pruning, or sowing seeds to prepare for spring/summer flowers? We will provide materials and instructions for your family to make bird feeders. Coffee and cake/biscuits will be provided.
