Volunteering

Why not come and join us at one of our regular work parties?

We’re always delighted to meet new volunteers and it’s a great way for you to enjoy the lavender, help maintain the field and get some gentle exercise at the same time!

We are approaching the end of the year for volunteering with Carshalton Lavender. However, our weekend work parties will continue until the end of November, unless bad weather thwarts the plan!


We will be holding sessions on Saturday mornings from 10am to 1pm (with a break for squash and biscuits mid-morning).
           
Our next sessions will be on:

October:
Saturday 29th October

November:
Saturday 5th November
Saturday 12th November
Saturday 19th November
Saturday 26th November

What we do
Our tasks vary according to the time of year and weather, but include things like taking cuttings, potting on plants, mowing, pruning, weeding and replanting. You can work at your own pace, and we’ll provide refreshments (squash and biscuits). There is no cover over the field so make sure you come prepared for rain or shine. We provide all gloves and tools, although you are welcome to bring your own. We have only basic toilet facilities on site, and please be aware that the ground can be uneven.

If you're interested in helping out, we'd love to hear from you. Get in touch with us at info@carshaltonlavender.org or check back here for more dates soon.

You'll find details on how to get to us here. If you're planning to come along to one of our sessions please drop us a line at info@carshaltonlavender.org or give us a call on 07948 174907 so we can make sure we have enough cups!

And, if you have any questions just ask us - we look forward to meeting you soon!
