Cultivate and Educate
Cultivating Change supports school mental health through gardening, providing free seeds, resources, and workshops to help children grow and thrive.
Cultivating Change in the Community
Cultivating Change in the Community harnesses the power of gardening to nurture self-care and wellbeing through partnerships and hands-on support.
How we help
We use gardening to support wellbeing, learning and connection. In schools, our Cultivate & Educate programme builds nature and growing into everyday teaching and pastoral support, tailored to each setting. In the wider community, we co-create flexible growing projects with local groups to boost mental health, reduce isolation and bring people together.
Community stories
Castle School, Cambridge
Working with Castle School has been a privilege. We have been involved in the design and rebuild of an overgrown & neglected courtyard into a thriving kitchen garden.
It has been a pleasure to see the pupils grow in confidence and to see them relax, open up and become more conversational when gardening.
Our impact
Our work helps people feel more connected, confident and supported through growing together. By creating welcoming spaces to learn, share and nurture plants, we promote better mental health, stronger communities and a lasting connection to nature.
