Come along and help celebrate 10 years of the Children’s Garden
The Children’s Garden opened in 2003 and this year will be celebrating 10 years of helping Children Grow. The Children’s Garden is a great place for Children and their Families.
A great place for children, friends and families. It’s where you can play with your friends, plant seeds, water the plants, play games and do cool outdoor stuff. At the garden you can harvest, cook and share some of the food that grows here.
It’s also a place for the whole community to share – parents, grandparents and volunteers all help to make this work It’s a space which schools and organisations working with children can use for events and activities.
The Children’s Garden works with schools and community groups across Glasgow and also other parts of Scotland.
It aims to help schools develop food growing as part of the outdoor learning.
It promotes good healthy food, healthy outdoor exercise, friendship, arts and music, and to support schools (but not necessarily all at the same time!) In the ten years of The Children’s Garden much has been achieved but there’s plenty of scope to develop this remarkable project further.
Volunteers help make the garden grow.
