The Found Garden
Our volunteers and staff were hard at work on the weekend before the Festival, building structures; weeding soil; then arranging and watering wonderful varieties of potted plants. Investigate the full list of plants below.
Codesigned and produced with our brilliant community garden manager and educational officer, Sally Tillson
We can build a garden like this for you!
As featured on BBC
‘Our Founder’s Garden was featured in BBC’s ‘The Gardener’s World’. Take a closer look at our plot by heading on over to Episode 16 (time stamp 52:14)
This garden engages with residences to green up spaces and improve understanding of environmental and community needs.
It emerged from repurposed waste materials and is split into four main zones surrounding a central structural element representing residential blocks in and around Cultivate London’s community gardens.
The overall plot represents the circular society, an important part of Cultivate London’s workshop syllabus.

An urban orchard and found/ recycled materials and objects nestled among pollinator friendly plants, such as: Amaranthus Caudatus (love-liesbleeding), Nigella Damascena (love-in-a-mist), and Cyclanthera Pedata (stuffing gourd). These reflect the growing environments in areas where our volunteers live.
