Muddy Fork
Helping people to overcome mental health challenges through volunteer gardening in North Nottinghamshire.
People are changing their lives step by step, doing useful work in supportive company, surrounded by nature at the Muddy Fork garden.
- People fearful of leaving the house start to enjoy getting out and about
- People with no purpose start to get satisfaction from voluntary work
- Silent people start to chat
Seeing people change keeps us working to help it happen.
Gardening for wellbeing - try it!
Feeling low, anxious, isolated?
Lots of other people are too but we seldom talk about it. That's why Muddy Fork is here.
Come and volunteer in our garden, with friendly people, and nature all around at the Idle Valley Nature Reserve in Retford.
