Do you enjoy being outdoors and getting a bit of fresh air? Would you like to help look after a shared space that the whole community can enjoy? If so, The Good Shepherd’s Ewe Grow Gardening Group would love you to join us.
We meet on Friday mornings from 9.30am, and everyone is welcome.
Helping Care for Our Church Grounds
Each week, we work together to care for the church grounds and keep them looking neat, welcoming, and well‑loved. There are plenty of simple jobs to do, including:
- Weeding
- Mowing
- Litter picking
- General tidying
- Making the grounds look more colourful and inviting
You don’t need gardening experience. You just need a willingness to help and enjoy working alongside others.
Sharing Ideas and Vision
We’re also keen to welcome people who like to dream and plan. If you have ideas about how we could use our church grounds to create a beautiful and useful space for the local community and the church, we would love to hear from you.
Whether your ideas are big or small, your input can help shape the future of this shared space.
Everyone Welcome
You don’t have to come every week, and you don’t need special tools. Just wear clothes you don’t mind getting muddy and come ready to join in. The group is friendly, relaxed, and supportive.
