Supporting loneliness and isolation through nature based connection
WHAT WE’RE ALL ABOUT
At Cultivating Community, we are committed to transparency, accountability, and inclusivity in all aspects of our work. Since our establishment in 2019, we have grown from running a plant nursery at the Walled Garden in Mells to becoming a vital part of the Frome community, establishing Victoria Park Community Cafe in 2023 and taking on Broadway Community Garden in 2024
While it was sad to leave the original nursery site in Mells in April 2024 it has allowed us to expand our impact and reach.
​​​​We invite you to explore our latest annual report, which provides detailed insights into our activities, financial health, and the positive impact we’ve had on the community. By maintaining strong governance practices, we ensure that Cultivating Community continues to thrive and serve those who need us most.
