Community Gardens London #01

Issue 1 of this nature zine is an homage to the community gardens found all across London.

Whether they’re run, managed or simply enjoyed by the community, these gardens are a quiet refuge to the relentlessly fast-paced city life. There’s no doubt that we need more green spaces as we tackle social and environmental challenges, in visiting some of these gardens, people will feel inspired to support their local gardens or even create their own. 

In this debut issue, hear from Tayshan Hayden-Smith on the creation of the Grenfell Peace Garden. Listen to Deptford's own Kwesia, who is on a mission to harness nature's healing power. And from Niellah Arboine, writer and former editor of Where the Leaves Fall, on their time spent in community gardens.

'A garden is a symphony between people and the more-than-human world...'
