Lansbury Gardeners are an affiliated society of the RHS - membership number 20062238
Lansbury Gardeners is expanding! We have attracted interest from the local community and the group is growing in membership. We have a grant from Poplar HARCA which will allow to create gardens and growing spaces on the Lansbury Estate!
The group started in June 2008 as a Well London project funded by BIG Lottery, delivered by Groundwork London with support from Poplar HARCA
The project started when residents on the Lansbury Estate were invited to adopt a grow bag in the Hind Grove Community Hall garden, however we are also interested in getting involved in other gardening activities and opportunities in Poplar.
There are several large grow bags located in the garden - each of which has been adopted by a family, school or community group. You can grow what you like, and there are usually experienced or professional gardeners on hand to give advice.
All the bags are now being used - but if you are interested in adopting a grow bag in the future, please get in touch and we will add you to our waiting list.
You don't have to have a grow bag to come to one of our sessions. If you just want to come along and chat to others interested in gardening and pick up some tips, perhaps about growing flowers and vegetables in your own garden or balcony please join us.
We formally constituted as Lansbury Gardeners on Thursday April 9th 2009. You can download our constitution here.
