Report written by Nathan Wood
It was a nice sunny session at Thorlands. Angela joined us for her first session, and Demian returned for his second! They, and Jo together cleared the bed of weeds, while I had a go at throwing mulch all over the place.
Thorlands Gardens is a food growing club based on an east Lambeth housing estate, in Camberwell. There was a shared vision to move forward with a zero miles food project on unused and unloved brownfield spaces. There was an understanding that residents of all ages could volunteer simply for the value that experience gives to individual wellbeing. There is also the added bonus of sharing the fruits of the labour, which in this case is healthy produce, such as vegetables, salads, herbs, and edible flowers.
