SHED is a community gardening project based at the Community Roots Garden in Main Street West Kilbride. We have weekly gardening sessions, offering a relaxed space to learn no-dig and permaculture food growing whilst coming together for friendship. The group is as much focussed on mental and physical wellbeing as it is on food security and sustainability. We distribute the food we grow amongst the volunteers and the local Village Larder.

WKEG maintain over 30 community gardens in West Kilbride. These include station planters and gardens, memorial garden, plus Catlinn, Old Mans Rest, Barony Centre, Cherry Orchard planters, library and Boyd Orr gardens. We also have 2 fields, a wood, wildflower meadow and community orchard. The group operate from Garratt Gardens where there are poly tunnels, ponds, fruit bushes and a wide range of habitats. All this is achieved entirely by a wonderful group of volunteers who meet once a week.

WKYG work with other local volunteer groups to create a welcoming atmosphere in and across the village attracting residents and visitors to gather together during December and January every year to participate in community wide activities
