information SERVICE DETAILS

The Grove community garden is by the community for the community. Everyone helps and all we do is for free.

The Grove relies on all gardeners to make a commitment. Without such people, the gardens could not function.

By being an active gardener you can improve the garden, learn new and valuable skills and, most importantly, have fun.

The garden has a committee which usually meets monthly at Grove One.

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend these meetings as we need your ideas and suggestions. We appreciate that people may not always be able to attend meetings, but please be proactive when opportunities present themselves, such as our workshops and work days.

In normal times we aim to hold two main events every year. These events take considerable effort to organise and their success depends on the involvement and contribution of all of us. One event is our yearly birthday party in Spring which is there to really enjoy what we have achieved. The other is a open doors event to show the people of Edinburgh our great community garden and simply have a fun day.

An annual general meeting (AGM) is held every year at which the committee and office bearers (Chair, Secretary and Treasurer) are elected; we encourage all gardeners to attend it.

Over the years the Grove gardens have developed into a great place, which serves the community in a unique way.

Donations are always welcome too!
