A community led green space in the heart of Forest Gate.
A beautiful oasis and constantly evolving natural environment that hosts activities, events, workshops and school groups throughout the year.
It is cared for, maintained and supported by a group of dedicated volunteers with biodiversity and sustainability at its core.
Everyone is Welcome
