Our weekly nurture club returned to the garden this term. Originally called the 'nature group'  the children have decided to rename it the 'nurture group' to describe exactly how they feel about the sessions.

As new terms start and children head back to school, we wanted to reflect on the fun and busy days we had during the summer.

As we roll into August we look back on some of the busiest few weeks we have had on the acre to-date!

Summer arrived with a blast of fun at space2grow as we hosted London Fields Primary School from Hackney. They enjoyed a day packed full of activities followed by an over night stay under canvas.

On Friday 7th June we hosted our 2nd BIG LUNCH. On the success of last years event supported by the Eden Communities we wanted to celebrate all things space2grow

We have come to the end of two Talking Teens courses that have been running this spring and we are so proud to be able to offer these courses in Farnham.

"I didn't realise you could get lost in something so small. And I didn't know getting lost in something so small would be so fun. I am so haaaaaapppy"

The Men in Sheds team have had a very busy start to the year. This month has seen them focusing on the building of the F A R N H A M bug house letters.

We've had a very wet start to the acre with the storms at the start of the year resulting in floods. Luckily the pond and sheds all remained intact and water dispersed quickly.

The last few weeks have been very festive at space2grow, here are a few highlights!

Our community came together for a wonderful bonfire night celebration!

Our new initiative, space2play, is in full swing with local families enjoying nature based activities in the garden.

Over 250 local children and parents enjoyed free summer nature club sessions at space2grow earlier in the school holiday!

We've had a busy time at space2grow already this summer! We've welcomed over 140 children from Potters Gate Primary School just up the road and London Fields Primary School in Hackney to the garden. Here's a taste of what they got up to! 

Comedian John Bishop joined more than 100 local members of the space2growcommunity last week for a celebratory Big Lunch in partnership with Eden Project Communities.

Take a look at the fantastic den that our group from Weydon School have built in the secret garden at space2grow.

There were smiles all round as members of the Farnham Men in Sheds team presented the fabulous glitterball trophy they have made for The Ridgeway School's annual Ridgeway's Got Talent competition.

Great news! We've secured a community grant of £2,000 from Farnham Town Council that will be used to offer parenting support to more local families.

We were honoured to introduce a very special visitor to the space2grow community recently when HRH The Duke of Edinburgh visited Farnham to plant the 70th and final tree in Jubilee Walk.

We've been learning all about the trees on the acre with a special day for Year 3 children from Potter's Gate Primary School.

The acre was buzzing with activity earlier this month when 90 children from Potter's Gate Primary School visited space2grow to enjoy the garden and learn how to weave willow bird feeders.

We're excited to announce that our new and improved space2grow greenhouse is up and running and already busy with local school groups.
