We have garden volunteer opportunities in our beautiful community garden.   Ever wanted to get outdoors, see wildlife, meet a friendly crowd and learn a new skill? Come along and find out more about it.  You don't need any gardening knowledge as we will provide training and any equipment you might need. 

On Tuesday afternoon, volunteers gather in the park to tidy and maintain the green space through weeding, pruning and trimming. Tools and gloves provided. Please let us know in advance if you intend to join in so we can get the right equipment out.

We are seriously addressing food insecurity, carbon emissions and the malnutrition associated with a hyper-processed diet as well as offering educational and therapeutic spaces in our fabulous community market garden located in Camperdown Country Park.

As a volunteer with the Ardler Community Garden you can help with weeding beds, planting new plants and harvesting produce both for the gardens and for sharing with the local Macmillan cafe. More experienced gardeners share their knowledge with the rest of the group who are keen to learn.

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!
