Garden Volunteer

As part of our new project, Putting Down Roots in Rotherhithe the Farm is looking for some enthusiastic gardening volunteers on Sundays and Mondays to help look after our green spaces and keep the Farm looking its best. It is also a great chance to learn more about horticulture, meet like-minded locals and make the most of the outdoors.

We have a wide range of green spaces which need tending throughout the year, whatever the weather. We only use organic gardening methods and are always looking to get the most out of our spaces.

We now offer free accredited training as part of our volunteer programme and monthly seasonal cookery sessions, using produce grown at the Farm.

Beginners Drop-In Gardening Group 
Sunday 10am-1pm

Do you have an interest in horticulture and gardening? Would you like to learn more about organic methods of gardening, growing fruit and vegetables, herbs, ornamentals, seasonal tasks and garden maintenance.

Please register your interest via the form below. We’ll invite you in for an induction to explain more about the role, cover health and safety aspects and show you round the Farm. You’ll then be able to join Sunday sessions when you’re next available!

Do you have at least one year’s worth of gardening experience? Knowledge and experience of organic methods of gardening with ornamentals, herbs, fruit and vegetables would be very useful. You will need to be happy to work independently to complete set tasks.
