We will be updating this page to bring you the latest progress on the 'Kingshurst Community Garden' project.

The project begins

The team began by laying a top soil delivery.


Completing the transformation

The Kinghurst Community Gardens supported by our Melbicks centre have now completed their community gardening using their winner's prize money. 

Lee Browning from the Kinghurst Parish Council said:

"We are absolutely thrilled and honoured that the Kingshurst Community Garden was selected as one of the winners in the Blue Diamond Garden Centres competition. This recognition truly celebrates the dedication and passion of our residents and volunteers in transforming our green space into a vibrant, sustainable community asset."

Over the past year, we have worked hard to transform what was once an overgrown area into a flourishing pollinators’ garden to support our community beehives. Thanks to the generous support from Blue Diamond and the valuable advice provided, we have been able to use the winnings to plant a wide variety of pollinator-friendly plants, bushes, and fruit trees.

This transformation has been led with commitment by Councillor John Edwards and Sue, who has done a truly wonderful job caring for the flowers and guiding the planting process.

The garden is now a space enjoyed by all ages and stands as a lasting tribute to what community spirit, expert advice, and a little support can achieve.

Thank you again for your generosity and for inspiring communities like ours to grow together.
