The Rotherfold Garden is designed as a garden open to all members of the public, with the added benefit that residents should feel a real sense of ownership, due to its feeling of privacy and inclusion of garden features.

St Mary's Partnership

The Trust is working in partnership with the Totnes Town Council and St Mary’s Church to build on the unique heritage around St Mary’s Church, Totnes. Details of the partnership project can be followed here.

Gardening for Health

The neglected open space at The Lamb Garden has been transformed, with raised beds for growing vegetables and herbs, a small fruit growing ‘forest garden’ with new benches, a pergola and lawn, while retaining the listed paving. Courses are run by members of School Farm, Dartington Hall for those referred by the doctors at Leatside and other surgeries and for members of the community.
