Gardening

Newfields has a team who are supported in growing a variety of flowers and vegetables. These are grown for planting in our gardens and for selling in our on- site shop. The shop has plant sales throughout the summer months.

In our team you will be shown how to grow plants from sowing the seeds to enjoying the flowers and picking the fruit and vegetables. If you want to, there is also the chance to learn how to use the key start lawn mower and mow and edge the lawn.

We have two large greenhouses, a potting shed and a workshop, where we can still work if it’s cold or wet.

The gardening team is headed by Alison who has over 20 years experience working in horticulture and supporting our gardeners.

We are wheelchair friendly and have activities to suit all mobilities.
