Empty Common Community Garden & Meeting Hut

This is the official blog of the award-winning Empty Common Community Garden, which is in Cambridge, UK. It is open to all and is very inclusive. It is based on the principles of permaculture and we grow food and flowers to encourage wildlife (bees, insects, etc). We use no pesticides.
