Barking Grow Club

Well-being is the main focus in the Grow club garden, and we acknowledge how important being in green spaces helps support our well-being. We spend time in the garden that best fits how we are doing on the day, we practice mindfulness and taking care of our mental and physical wellbeing whilst working at our own space and speed. We encourage relaxation, connecting with nature and learning new skills to keep ourselves and the garden nourished.

Company Drinks:
Company Drinks is a community space and social enterprise based in Barking and Dagenham, where we make drinks with and for each other. Company Drinks started out in 2014 to bring people back together through the act of picking and reconnecting with local green spaces and nearby countryside.
Company Drinks is now a co-working space and an expanding network of users, collaborators and partners, who come together to pick, grow, make, learn, unlock and share the resources and knowledge around us.
Company Drinks was set up in as an art commission, and registered as a Community Interest Company in 2015. We see ourselves as part of a larger community-focused ecosystem of care, that strives for an equal, just and non-discriminatory world.
