Event Description

Ever fancied having a green, living roof but not sure where to start? Drop in to the Eden Community Tree Nursery and help us build our new, bigger green roof and pick up practical hints and tips along the way! No experience necessary, we’ll show you how.

You can drop in for an hour or stay all day! If you plan to stay for the full five hours, please bring a packed lunch.

Good to know:

Ages: Adults Only

Booking Information: No need to book, just turn up

Accessibility: Wheelchair accessible. Please note there aren’t any toilets at the nursery

What to bring: Suitable clothes for the weather that you don’t mind getting muddy in and sturdy shoes. We can provide gloves, but if you prefer to use your own gardening gloves – please bring them along. If you plan to stay for the full day, please bring a packed lunch.

Please get in touch with Eden Rivers Trust at [email protected] or on 01768 866788 in advance if you have any additional needs that they should be aware of.
