Gardening
This is the page for the Gardening Subgroup of Teign Estuary Transition. A key element of transition is to grow more of our own food because this helps reduce road-miles and makes our community more resilient. We are interested in helping people with our own gardening projects, working with allotment holders, and creating community gardens for all to work in and enjoy within our local area.
We are currently running a community garden in the Walled Garden, Eastcliff Park. For more information, see the Walled Garden page.
For more information about the Permaculture approach to gardening that we have adopted, see our page on The Gardening Group and Permaculture.
