Since 2003 Arkwright Meadows Community Gardens in the HEART of the Meadows has been an oasis in an urban area, a green space for local residence and people of the City of Nottingham to enjoy, a place of learning, relaxing, recreation and space to have pride and ownership of.

Our values are inclusion, inspiration and pride.

Our aim is to be at the HEART of the Meadows:

Horticulture: To grow reasonably priced organic fruit, vegetables and plants for sale to the Meadows community.

Education: To be an educational resource for local school children and the Meadows community, focusing on horticulture, the environment and healthy eating.

Activities & Volunteering: To provide a range of horticultural based activities for the Meadows community and foster volunteering as a valued and worthwhile activity.

Recreation: To be a place where Meadows residents of all ages can work, rest and play and where events that reflect the community's cultural diversity can be celebrated.

Training: To provide vocational training for Meadows residents that can lead to recognised qualifications and employment.

Come and visit us and see what we do and what we can offer, and take advantage of our low cost organically grown produce.
