Sunday 21 October 2012: 2-5pm
This is the first of our Autumn gardening afternoons for everyone. Come along and help plant daffodils, grape hyacinths and lots of other lovely Spring-flowering bulbs, to make sure the Garden looks even more colourful next year than it did in 2012. Just wear comfortable shoes and clothes and turn up and join in. Children and adults are all welcome, although children younger than 11 years of age must be accompanied by an adult.
Sunday 14 October 2-5pm
Come along to the Garden this Sunday and join in making delicious breads from around the world, using fresh herbs from the Garden. This is not a workshop, but a chance for you to bring along a favourite recipe to share, or even some dough you have prepared at home. There will be flour, sugar, and other ingredients and baking bowls will be provided. The breads will be baked in the Garden’s clay oven, before we all sit down to enjoy the fresh bread with a nice cup of tea.
‘Time for Tea’ is a one day festival spread over three locations in Dalston to mark ‘World Mental Health Day’. Gillett Square will be transformed into a ‘pop-up village’ for the afternoon, with activities for all the family, from knitting, jewellery making, croquet and a free tea lounge with tea and cake, to a replica of Tate Modern called “Tight Modern” displaying 50 miniature works.
‘Time for Tea’ is in association with: Hackney Community Services, East London NHS Foundation Trust, Gillett Squared, Studio Upstairs and Time To Change.
