The garden is an edible skatepark landscape inspired by the joy of playing, cultivating and growing together. It demonstrates how outdoor learning correlates with enhanced learning outcomes, well-being, concentration, behaviour, memory, and confidence.
A distinctive skate ramp forms the heart of the garden and is reminiscent of street skateboarding plazas. Multi-layered edible planting is integrated into the space under the canopy of a forest garden landscape. The planting will mimic a natural forest ecosystem that supports a wide range of flora and fauna provided through a thriving polyculture system. Various planting compositions will offer the canvas for a tactile learning environment.
The garden has been created by a collective of skaters, food growers and parents who believe greenspace, excitement, and good food should be at the heart of our communities.
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

PLANET GOOD EARTH is a fun, playful food education platform that inspires the next generation of gardeners to be part of the environmental movement worldwide.
Their Earth-friendly organisation hosts IRL feel-good sessions, workshops, events, installations & after- school clubs that celebrate the joy of playing, cultivating and growing together.
The garden has now been relocated to Hereford Skate Park, where it will demonstrate how growing food and recreation can work together to positively impact youth communities. It will act as the blueprint for broader adoption nationwide, creating horticultural youth hubs that contribute to green initiatives and healthier urban landscapes.
