Sheridan Court Community Garden
Between March and September 2021 we facilitated the transformation of a social housing outdoor space in Monsall, Manchester into a communal garden to grow vegetables, herbs, and for socialising and neighbourhood activities. It became a space to provide residents with opportunities to reconnect with nature, food and the environment.
Our aim was to ‘heal - reimagine - renew systems’ through environmental workshops, including vegetable growing and climate-change education.

It was an open space with some beautiful trees including a Eucalyptus and some evergreens.
There was a small rockery and a discarded bench in the corner but otherwise this outdoor spaces was mostly unused by local residents.
After
Now this area has:
2 vegetable patches, a herb and flower bed,
a rejuvenated rockery, 3 new fruit trees
and a brand new seating area.









This project is generously funded by the Lankelly Chase Greater Manchester System Changers, and delivery was assisted by Elevate Young Minds.
