Join Mel in the garden and learn what is growing

Two Trees Community Garden is one of 19 gardens taking part in Brighton & Hove Community Garden Month – Route to Roots. Click here for details of other gardens you can visit by bus. This is a city-wide programme and each garden will have it own character. Other gardens are open on various weekends throughout June.

Visit Two Tree’s home page to find out how to access the garden by clicking here. Beware our pathways in the garden are uneven and only made up of rough grass, we are slowly making the pathways smoother, if you would like to help dig out paths, please chat to Mel.

There will be access to Hollingdean Community Centre toilets. Local shops nearby for refreshments and picnic tables in the shade.

Front cover news for Two Trees Community Garden

We are very proud of Mel and what she has achieved as one of the Growing Hollingdean early members. As well as establishing Two Trees with Nauma and developing it over the years, she is an active Tree Guardian and also grows in her own allotment and garden. And that is as well as caring for her family and a full time job. She is amazing! A big thank you to Mel.
