Welcome to The Patcham Gardening Network!

Do you enjoy gardening?

Would you like to join a group to share knowledge, skills, plants and much more?

The Patcham Gardening Network is a group of local gardening enthusiasts who meet once a month to share and enhance our gardening knowledge. We invite experts to give talks and workshops, organise trips to gardens, and open up our own gardens for members to visit. We are building a community for local gardeners of all abilities to indulge their passion further. 

Membership is open to all at £24 per year. Please Join Us

Details of all our meetings can be found on our Events page.

Our next meeting

On Wednesday 24th June we will be joined by Jodie Bryan from Caley Brothers Mushrooms for The Hidden World of Fungi: How Mushrooms Support Soil Health, Biodiversity and Sustainable Food Production.

Her talk will explore the fascinating role fungi play beneath our feet, from supporting plant growth and healthy soils to their importance in the natural ecosystems. Jodie will share insights into mushroom cultivation, the differences between wild and cultivated fungi, and how we as gardeners can encourage beneficial fungi in our own gardens.

Jodie co-founded Caley Bros with her sister, Lorraine, and together they grow gourmet mushrooms in West Sussex, produce grow-at-home mushroom kits and deliver workshops and talks across the UK.

Join us in Patcham Community Centre from 7pm, members free, visitors £5.

Open Gardens

We are hosting two open events in late summer, the first is an open garden, the second an open allotment. Have a look at our Garden Visits page for full details.
