Nottingham Organic Gardeners

Gardeners are welcome to join our garden sessions held by Nottingham Organic Gardeners on our well established organic allotment site at Whitemoor Allotments.

Monthy Saturday Sow and Grow Garden Party - new for 2024 we are trying sow and grow sessions, come along and sow seeds (veggies, fruit and flowers) you can then take the seeds home for your garden/allotment or windowsill!

The garden work parties are open to new volunteers on a monthly basis. If you want to come more often please let us know!

What do we do?
We meet on the plot for a start time of 11am prompt, tours of the garden are given to new visitors and hot and cold drinks available. Each month we will focus on the seasons and sow seeds, care for plants and make compost. The joy of our gardening sessions is that we share in the work, share in the harvests and share plants.
Gardening tasks are given out and you can be paired with a NOGs member to learn what to do so don't worry if you are still learning - so are we!
After a morning of gardening activities we stop for light lunch at 1pm - this is normally a vegan soup plus extras.
We try to share as many things as we can in the garden from that day - pick your salad leaves, take spare plants or seedlings home, take a few pots for seedlings etc!

2nd Wednesday of the month.
