Winter and Spring work parties at Victoria Gardens

We are meeting in the garden and tackling many jobs! From pruning to working on our mixed orchard, you can join in whether you have got lots of gardening skills or simply a willingness to get stuck in and learn. We'll also have time for a cup of tea, a sweet treat, and a wee chatter in the community pantry. Everyone is welcome! Hope to see you there!

New for 2026- Permaculture Project

We are very excited to have received funding from Foundation Scotland via Dundee Changemakers hub.  This will enable us as a network to further our work and knowledge in our gardens using the principles of permaculture.   This is the most sustainable way to grow food.  Once established the growing system is self regulating.  As a network we are really lucky to have a few local experts who have learned by trying out lots of techniques in their own gardens in Dundee.  We will be sharing their local knowledge and working to create a more sustainable way of growing with minimal impact.  Whether it's about water, temperature or biodiversity we hope to provide practical solutions.  Follow us on our journey through the months ahead.
