About
Come and join us at Hunloke Community Gardens in Birdholme for the Spring Open Day.
First we’ll take a walk around this area of Chesterfield, finding some more hidden green spaces, exploring the local history and spotting unusual art works along the way. We’ll have a brief comfort stop in Queen’s Park before returning to the garden to enjoy refreshments. Then you’ll be free to explore this beautiful hidden gem at your leisure and maybe take home some plants and produce from the garden, all grown by the hardworking volunteers.
