Field Day

Come have a field day! Join us at the edge of the city at the beautiful Lambhill Stables for a relaxed afternoon of gardening, pickling and pizza.

• Explore the crops growing for seed, and lend us a hand with weeding, mulching, composting and planting out
• Make and take away local apple vinegars, fire cider and pickles with Glasgow Apple Pressing, and add to their apple map of Glasgow
• Browse the plant and seedling sale, all grown by the Lambhill Stables garden volunteers.
• Enjoy a slice of pizza from the outdoor woodfired oven or pick up a bite from the Community Cafe

If you’ve not made it to visit our seed plots yet, this is your chance!

Come prepared for unpredictable Scottish weather: bring a hat, sunscreen, warm and waterproof layers, and sturdy footwear for rough ground.

Email glasgowseedlibrary@cca-glasgow.com if you’d like more information about the event.
