ABOUT CUTTESLOWE GREENHOUSE
Cutteslowe Greenhouse is a new community project which seeks to create an opportunity for people to connect with nature and each other. We are working to secure a lease on the greenhouses located in the centre of Cutteslowe Park, as a base for our future activities. In the meantime, we put on regular events in the area, with the aim of strengthening existing community connections and learning nature-related skills from each other. Check our Events page for more information, sign up to our newsletter, or follow us on Facebook and Instagram.
WHAT'S GOING ON AT CUTTESLOWE GREENHOUSE
We are in the process of setting up a new, community-led social enterprise which will help us connect with nature and each other. We're working to secure a long-term lease on the greenhouses in Cutteslowe Park. In the meantime, we're putting on pop-up events in the park, with opportunities to volunteer. See below to learn about our current activities, or go to the Volunteering section to sign up to help with future events. If you'd like to support our project through becoming a member or making a one-off donation, head to the Membership section.
