Description
All students are welcome to join the Green Team and drop in for a social and some gardening activities in the Community Garden at Frenchay, the gardening activities will be run by two of the fab UWE Grounds Team staff.
Both experienced and new gardeners can get involved and grow their own fruit and vegetables for free and work on making Frenchay Campus a fantastic home for wildlife.
Additionally, there will be some free tea, coffee and a vegan or veggie meal deal. You can get involved with some gardening activities or you can just relax and get to know other students.
