Bloom Sheffield

Bloom Sheffield is a local not-for-profit organisation providing community gardens for women and non-binary people.

They promote positive mental health and wellbeing through therapeutic horticulture. Bloom runs therapeutic gardening groups as a way of meeting new people, trying new things and feeling good – both mentally and physically.  There is tea and biscuits, friendly faces, chat and much to learn about flowers; supported by a facilitator and a specialised volunteer. 

Their sessions include:

• Gardening To Feel Good therpeutic horticulture groups. These groups run for 8 weeks at a time throughout the year, focusing on feeling good – both mentally and physically. They are small groups and give you the opportunity to work together, meet new people and share skills.
• Gather & Grow Gardening Sessions. These are regular weekly get-togethers for fun, friendship and gardening. Activities include digging, weeding, sowing seeds and drinking tea.
• Outdoor Toddler & Baby Groups. These groups connect with nature through nature based crafts and activities, and create friendships within the parenting community. The offer 2 groups: Bloom Seedlings for mums & babies, and Bloom Saplings for mums & toddlers

Some sessions are free and others have a cost. You can view more information on their website. And book a place on their booking platform.

They also have volunteering opportunities and a flower shop on Chesterfield Road, Woodseats.  For more information or advice on how you can get involved email: [email protected]
