Important: Please note although donation optional booking required to ensure we know who and how many people are coming to our sessons!
What to expect?
Each week we will respond to the present moment ie. with what is needed to be tended, planted, harvested, cooked and what structures we can build to support us in doing so such as cooking, dinning, shelter, water collection, vertical gardening and more! This is very much a place for you to come as you are and engage as much or as little as you like on that day - each session will include tea/coffee, a communal lunch as well as opportunity to take away any surplus produce.
Example running order...
- 10:55 - Arrive (all meet at the grassed area on the corner of Natal and Nesbitt road - just before the gate)
- 11:00 - 11:30 Welcome, check in with tea/coffee, observe land and create collective plan for the day (if need inspiration suggestions will be given)
- 11:30 - 14:00 Work on land (growing, cooking or building)
- 14:00 - 15:00 Lunch and check out (including any surplus food to take away)
What to bring ?
- Ensure you and anyone you are accompanying are wearing weather-appropriate clothing and footwear
- A bottle of drinking water
- Suncream (you'll be surprised even on a cloudy day!)
- Any medication you may need
- And lastly, yourself as you are : )
Key information about accessibility and hazards:
Once you arrive at Moulsecoomb allotment, Natal Road (limited parking in the area - suggest to travel via foot, bike or public transport) it is few minutes walk along an uneven dirt road before we get to Plot 132 (opposite the shop). When at Plot 132 there are a few different routes that can be taken with a slight slope and terraced areas to navigate.
*Please bear in mind that the site is by its nature hazardous: with open fires, ponds, fungi, insects, occasionally wild animal faeces, overhanging branches, and uneven or slippery ground.
*Donations Welcome (even as little as the cost of a cup of coffee will help)*
Please note as a community interest company we are a not for profit organisation but do rely on funding and donations to cover our running costs, as such if you are able to make even a small donation this will ensure we can continue running our sessions and include a nutritional lunch and hot drinks for all who attend!
Cancellation Policy
If you can't attend please give us at least 48hours notice so that we can open up the space for someone else. Sadly we are unable to offer a refund if you make a donation but your ticket can be transfered to a future session or you can pass on your ticket to another person to take you place.
