Regular guided work days for anyone who wants to come along and join in, choosing from a range of tasks to fit you and what needs doing in the gardens. Activities include: sowing and planting fruit and vegetable crops, weeding and other crop maintenance activities. Novice or expert, it doesn't matter: share and develop knowledge and skills around tasks that develop the Royal Edinburgh Community Gardens!
