GRESHAM COMMUNITY GARDEN
Picture

Gresham Community Garden is a shared space for growing food and building a community. 

Located in the Newport area of Middlesbrough, close to the heart of the town, Gresham Community Garden is an urban food growing space situated in one of the oldest residential neighbourhoods.

At around quarter of an acre in size, and surrounded by Victorian brick terraced houses, it provides a calm retreat for people to share time, relax and become a little more self reliant, growing fruit and vegetables for themselves, their families and friends.
All are welcome at the Garden.​  You don't need to have special skills, give up a lot of time or make a commitment.  You just need to share our values of being kind, accepting other people and wanting to make our corner of the world a little bit of a better place.

Weekly growing sessions

Fridays, 2-4

Join us at the Resource Centre on Meath Street for seed planting and tea drinking!  We spend some time in the greenhouse raising seedlings for the garden and for nearby gardening projects, and some time chatting on the beautiful, sheltered terrace.  All are welcome; no skills required.

We will shortly be starting work on the Community Garden site.  Initial work will include planning out the space and moving top soil and compost to create a series of vegetable beds.  No previous experience is necessary, but please be aware that initial work will be physically tiring (although you will not be expected to do any more than you wish).  Please watch this space for further information.
