NEW WORKSHOPS: Regenerative Practice In Community Gardens
For anyone interested in community gardening
We’ll work together to develop our best practice in sharing our green spaces.
Join us for 6 winter mornings in the cosy environment of the Salisbury Centre. This series invites participants to slow down, listen, explore, and co-create a regenerative way of being.
Using ecological principles, shared dialogue, and embodied practices, we will explore how individuals and communities can thrive by connecting with each other and with the living world.
Each session blends conversation, experiential learning, and collective discovery. Over the 6 sessions our aim is to generate conversations that inspire best practice in community gardens.
Each week we’ll dig in to the principles of regeneration: not just in the soil but in ourselves and our communities. Expect stories, practical skills, reflection and a growing circle of people ready to learn together.
The sessions will be hosted by Richard and Rob from Transition Edinburgh South. Both have over twenty years experience of community gardening and regenerative practice.
The workshops will be inclusive and open to all. People of all ages and all backgrounds, experienced community gardeners and new community gardeners are all welcome.
Come with curiosity and leave with roots.
