02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Kirkmichael Community Garden is a volunteer-led charity that provides a welcoming and accessible space where people can come together to grow food, learn new skills, improve wellbeing and strengthen community connections. We run community garden near the centre of the village, providing opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to participate in gardening, volunteering and community events. Two of our volunteers run fortnightly session with the kids from our local primary school, The Head and one Teacher are on our Board. We currently have 31 registered volunteers, half help regularly. Produce grown in the garden is shared with volunteers and made available to the wider community through a donation-based scheme. We also create opportunities for social interaction, learning and physical activity, helping to reduce isolation and improve wellbeing within our rural community. Through these activities we promote community participation, learning and healthy living.
