Sign up for the next Get growing in Hollingdean Park Planting Day Sunday 9th February 2025

Wow! What an excellent turn out. 28 adults and 12 children joined Growing Hollingdean, Brighton Permaculture Trust and Brighton & Hove Food Partnership at the Hollingdean Family Hub on Sunday 12th January 2025. Together we learnt about food forests and how to plant and look after them. Then everyone came up with ideas for edible plants in the park and suggestions about where they could grow. We also enjoyed a bowl of soup with bread and a hot drink, made by Anna, the community chef, from locally grown ingredients. Delicious!

Hollingdean Park Edible Garden & Hedge

If you would like to join in the next planting days join up here. We are making the beds and planting on Sunday February 9th and Sunday March 9th. The idea is to create an edible hedge along a fence line in the main park and to make some child-friendly small beds in the play park outside the Family Hub this spring. If you would like to comment on the plans, please fill in the questionnaire here.
