Our story started in 2017 when we discovered a dilapidated plant nursery next to an allotment site off Cricket Road in Oxford. It was disused for 10 years and was overgrown with brambles. But there was something magical about the place and with a cabin, polytunnel frames, an orchard and growing areas, we saw there was huge potential to unlock.

A group a parents, community members and educators formed a Cooperative and set about to transform it into a beautiful outdoor educational space for families to connect with nature.

We offer community education activities from our site, for children and up, with a focus on Forest School, food-growing, outdoor play and self-directed learning.

The space is also a welcoming local resource, a place where local families can spend time with their children, attend workshops, meet other parents and build social networks. Alongside regular childcare, we will offer community activities and seasonal events.
