We have a beautiful, peaceful community garden surrounding the church here in Carnoustie, which is perfect for the wider enjoyment of local people and visitors.
Currently seeking at least two volunteers with some experience, to work alongside others to maintain and develop the garden. We have a shed full of all the tools and equipment you will need.

• Tree/ bush pruning, clearing leaves, weeding, planting and fence painting
• Creating new outdoor features and safe spaces
