Community Gardens in Inverclyde
Join in with food growing at one of Inverclyde’s community gardens! You don’t need any gardening experience or you may have lots of knowledge to share! There are over 10 growing spaces in Inverclyde. ICFN work with 5 of these (locations and gardening times listed below), but there may be one more suited to you through the Inverclyde Shed or one of the council allotments. Community gardens are very welcoming and are a great way to improve your physical and mental health or enjoy a chat over a cuppa. You get the added benefit of lots of fresh air and Vitamin D and take home some nutritious home-grown produce!
It’s sometimes daunting to start something new so if you would like to meet us for a chat before, or if you would like us to take you along to a garden, please get in touch!

You can ‘borrow’ free seeds from the seed library housed at South West Library at Barrs Cottage, Greenock! Follow the Drying Green facebook page for workshops on how to save seed!
