adventures on a north London rooftop. An excellent blog following the aerial gardening adventures of journalist and urban gardener, Helen Babbs

Abbey Gardens is a public space
designed by Karen Guthrie & Nina Pope of Somewhere.
Led by the Friends of Abbey
Gardens, what was a
neglected wasteland has been transformed into a unique open-access
Harvest Garden where anyone can grow and harvest flowers, fruit and
vegetables. The Gardens surround part of the ruin of a protected
12th century Cistercian Abbey where monks ran a large and
productive garden, and the site also displays more recent 19th
century archaeological remains.

City gardeners are encouraged to join together and start to Garden For a Living London. Make a pledge to do one thing to create a wildlife and climate friendly garden and help to transform the capital's three million gardens into a network of nature reserves.
