Volunteer days: Help us create a community roundhouse and forest garden

Would you like to be involved in creating a new communal garden space for Frome?

Edventure:Frome is transforming a triangle of unused land along the river Frome in the Welshmill area into a beautiful, forest garden and outdoor meeting space. The aim is for it to be accessible to all generations where nature can be felt, explored and learned from, in order to build a more resilient, integrated and sustainable community and bring it together in nature. But…

We need your help to make it happen! You are welcome to either of our gardening volunteer days

on Saturday, 29th of November and Saturday, 6th of December 

There will be a mix of mulching and planting trees and scrubs to do and a delicious lunch and hot drinks will be provided.

We are offering the opportunity to learn hands-on about tree planting and mulching and to be part of the creation of a communal forest garden. Oh, and a free glass of mulled wine at our grand opening of the space on the evening of the 12th of December.

Up for it?

We will start both days at 10 am and break for lunch at 1 pm.

If you have your own tools – spades, fork, mattock, shovels etc. – and would be happy to bring them along please do.  Appropriate footwear will also be important (steal toe-caps or wellies ideally).

To get involved reply to luisa.firsching@gmail.com with your name, which day(s) you would like to attend and any tools you can bring.

If you are unable to make it on the day, here are our contact details:

Hope to see you on the day!
