Watton Gardening Project

Our new community garden project is now up and running!

Beside Youth C.I.C., in conjunction with Wayland Partnership, will be running a multigenerational project whereby adults from the community teach young people gardening and cooking skills. 

Our aims of this project are: 

• To teach teenagers new skills that they don’t often get the opportunity to learn 
• To improve the wellbeing of members of the community, particularly young people 
• To build a community whereby the older and younger generations can learn from each other 
• To foster respect for the environment in young people 

Watton Town Council have kindly agreed to let us build a vegetable garden at Watton Community Centre. We will be creating a space with raised beds to grow different vegetables and plants throughout the year.

Keep an eye on our blog for updates!
