Working closely with the local community, we have grown our work at St Michael in the City over the past three years. The project centres around developing a garden that cares for the environment, increases biodiversity and grows the community around St Michael in the City.
Our work includes:
clearing, developing and growing garden space
offering gentle, therapeutic outdoor activity for participants that increases physical and mental wellbeing
City & Guilds horticulture qualifications through Myerscough college
running a Community Social Food Market with support from Micah foodbank
cooking nutritious and tasty lunches
creating community space with art and mindfulness activities

“I honestly do think the garden has been a positive thing for me, it’s let me contribute to something meaningful and given me something to focus on outside of my own head.”
“What I get out in the garden it's better than any tablets a doctor can give you – it’s organic therapy.”
Gill Reeve volunteered with us as part of her William Temple scholar studies. Gill wrote a wonderful blog post about the community growing at St.Michael's In The City that you can find here: Do not despise the day of small things
