Our knowledgeable and friendly gardening co-ordinator, Faye, runs this project. The Vanessa Gardening Project provides a welcoming, safe place where people can work together with others outside of a mental health setting. Gardening can have so many beneficial effects on people, whatever their age or background.Â
This project allows members to:Â Â
The group garden in all weathers – if it is raining they like to enjoy a cup of tea whilst taking shelter. On sunnier days, they potter about the garden weeding the beds and growing their own vegetables to take home or share with other members of the group.Â
The Vanessa Gardening Project meet every Tuesday 11am – 1pm at Yeovil Foyer Peters Street Yeovil. The sessions are free but please bring a packed lunch and suitable clothing. All abilities are welcome to join.
