Open Garden Squares Weekend

The community garden with its pond and wildflowers is enjoyed by local residents, including schoolchildren. The garden opened in 2006, thanks to a partnership between Bankside Open Spaces Trust and Tate Modern.

Planting days, pond-dipping, wildlife-spotting, events and gardening clubs all take place here. Local people can meet, dig, have fun and take pleasure in flowers, plants and animals, in what is otherwise a busy tourist thoroughfare.
