Late in 2023, we were contacted by Glasgow-based horticulturist Jeremy for an order of 14 raised beds. Little did we know the scale of the project he was working on in building the SWG3 Community Garden.

BEFORE THE TRANSFORMATION
For over a decade, this site behind the main SWG3 warehouse building has been registered as derelict by Glasgow City Council. With the support of the Vacant and Derelict Land Fund, the UK Government through the UK Community Renewal Fund and VKR Foundation, 3,200m² of wasteland has now been completely transformed.

As part of the Climate Hub’s legacy, the trees were donated to become part of this community space. Since then, Jeremy has been tending these indigenous plants and trees in preparation for their planting.
Now several years older, these trees have added a great deal of maturity to the garden, making it feel much more established than it actually is.
