Edinburgh Garden Partners

Sharing Gardens.

Sharing Lives.

We are a community organisation active across Edinburgh.

We aim to strengthen communities by creating relationships between people who want a space to grow and those who have garden space to share.

We connect people of different ages, abilities, and backgrounds to build a shared gardening movement through the exchange of skills, knowledge, and life experience.

Edinburgh Garden Partners has been creating garden partnerships across the city since 2011, connecting garden owners with volunteers looking for a space to grow.

Today our aim is to nurture a sense of belonging and strengthen communities in Edinburgh by creating garden partnerships that connect volunteers to older people in their community. It is the shared interest in gardening and the exchange of skills, knowledge and life experience that make these partnerships so special and rewarding for everyone involved.
