Bulwell Forest Garden - The Big Friendly Lunch Club

Overview

Fridays, 10.30am

The Big Friendly Lunch Club
Join us every Friday at our Big Friendly Lunch Club—it's a social activity where anyone can take part in harvesting, prepping, and enjoying a delicious seasonal meal made with fresh picked produce from the garden.
This weekly drop-in session is for all ages and abilities—you don't have to be a volunteer to get involved and every activity is guided by our lovely Lunch Club crew. It's a great way to meet people in your community, spend time outdoors, and even get a bit of inspiration to taste or cook something new!
The sessions are every Friday from 10.30 AM with a suggested donation of £3 for adults and £1.00 for kids.
All meals are vegetarian, served with pudding. Please let us know about any dietary requirements and we'll do our best to accommodate.
Everything at the garden is a group effort, so we do ask that everyone pitches in to wash up their own dishes once they've finished their meal.
