The Veg-Out Zone - Newent Community Garden. Situated behind The Computer Shop and Reflections in Broad St. It is accessed by the path between URC and The Computer Shop. Run by Volunteers, the garden aims to teach people how to grow vegetables and fruit, learn about & respect wildlife, to share produce and gain skills for life.
Groups of all ages from childminders to pensioners each share raised beds. Working parties meet in the garden for projects like seating and fencing. News and jobs to be done are posted on the noticeboard near the garden entrance.
