Welcome to Scotch Quarry Park, Lancaster

The Park is surrounded by around 1,000 terraced houses without gardens. It's an old quarry that was filled in and grassed over in the 1950's.

This website exists for the project that is being run to create an area of edible fruit trees and bushes, herbs and salad leaves, using raised beds.

The project was initiated by Transition City Lancaster's Food & Growing group but is now run by a new voluntary group, Scotch Quarry Community Garden. We always welcome new volunteers and hope you will want to get involved! 

We are very grateful to our funders, the Big Lottery, Groundwork and Lancaster Greenspaces.
