Pembury Estate Community Garden
A community growing space run by residents of the Pembury Estate in Hackney.
The project is a large growing space in between Hindrey and Tolsford Road, offering a space for residents to grow fresh fruit and vegetables, spend time amongst nature, gain horticultural skills, and connect with their neighbours. We need help putting soil in our raised beds!5 GoodGymers have supported Pembury Estate Community Garden with 2 tasks.

Progress at Pembury

3 GoodGym volunteers helped Jack shift soil ready for new raised beds at Pembury Community Garden.
Once the community garden was located and the team found a work around to accessing the soil, which was within a locked garden area of the estate (solution = climbing over the fence), the task went ahead, as GoodGym joined Jack and the team for their regular growing session!
A true GoodGym workout with some extra problem-solving thrown in for good measure!
Great to meet first-timer, Brandon.
With 6 planters to fill, we'll be back at Pembury for more soil-shifting soon.
