No need for previous knowledge or experience with plants, growing, or conservation at Lauriston Farm (though they welcome any knowledge you have) – this is a great place to learn, volunteer and make a real positive difference to food and farming in Edinburgh!

The project has lots of volunteering sessions you can join, with something for everyone. There are weekly drop-in sessions in the Community Garden, or you might like to get involved with their Market Garden. They also have tree planting/care sessions several times a month, plus seasonal activities such as wildlife surveying opportunities in spring/summer, and harvesting and seed saving days in autumn.
