About Skool Beanz Children's Allotment

Skool Beanz is a gardening club for children created by Lara Honnor, which started as an after school club at the local primary school.
The children learn how to grow delicious vegetables, beautiful flowers and how to garden to help nature. Free from pesticides, this is a no dig garden buzzing with life and colour and packed full of inspiring ideas to engage the children.
Also at the allotments is a whole plot planted with sunflowers and pumpkins over the summer, a community orchard, Goosegog Corner and children’s playground. Enjoy the tulips at the spring open day and the dahlias in September. Live music, craft stalls and tea and cakes in the garden on both dates.
