'The garden makes our road so special and I enjoy seeing all the different people who stop and use it. It’s really improved our community'
Bernadine
'We love our community garden. Our three year old has learnt to climb there and wants to visit most days. We use the library and it's a lovely space to sit and chat. We've met so many lovely people there too! And the new flag looks amazing when you walk down Rye Bank Road!'
Marcia, Olly & Milla
"It seems like it gets better every week - the totem poles are amazing!"
Mike T
"A perfect example of a community coming together over a shared space. We often have a cup of tea with neighbours there, and dog-walkers usually stop for a chat too"
John Dunne and family
Help Us Save the Garden
Manchester Metropolitan University and Manchester City Council are supporting a proposal for a housing development on Rye Bank Fields, with a new access road that will destroy the Rye Bank Community Garden.
We are fighting this with the support of Trafford Council and our MP. We would love your support too - please sign up to our email list by adding your email address on this page and we will keep you updated on how you can help save the community garden from demolition by a housing developer.
Thanks for joining our email list and supporting the community garden! We will be in touch again when we have some garden news.
Your privacy is important to us, so we will never share your email address with anyone else. We will never spam you and only ever use your email address to send you communications regarding the Rye Bank Community Garden and the Rye Bank Fields development.
