Current Work Experience or Volunteering Opportunities in Horticulture

Plant Co-operative CIC is a multi award-winning not-for-profit urban gardening collective formed in the spring of 2021.

We specialise in transforming and managing public spaces, providing the opportunity to bring the community together through gardening.

We showcase the benefits that can be shared by all by taking a different approach – increasing biodiversity, improving social connection and mental health, and ultimately creating a city of gardeners.

• We’re starting a council funded project to create a new community food plot in the Noma area of the city and are looking for help with clearing, digging and building the new raised beds before filling them with lots of lovely vegetables. 

• This will begin in March and run once a week every Monday for two months.

• We’re looking for people living in Manchester who are either complete beginners or keen gardeners, and are comfortable with physical gardening tasks.

• This project is particularly aimed at people ages 16-24 and those looking to get more gardening experience. 

Location: Manchester

Hours: Every Monday throughout March and April. Full day and half day sessions are available.
