Lincoln Greeners community gardening group
Lincoln Greeners is a free, welcoming community group that meets every Tuesday from 10:30am to 12:30pm at Roxby Close, LS9 7LR. The weekly sessions invite people of all experience levels to take part in hands-on gardening activities such as planting, watering, weeding, and harvesting.
Participants learn how to grow flowers, herbs, and vegetables using simple, accessible methods while sharing knowledge about different plants and their cultural uses. All tools and refreshments are provided, and bus tickets are available for those who need them.
Support independent community journalism!
East Side Story covers the people, places and stories in Leeds that are too often overlooked. While national headlines chase conflict and clickbait, we focus on real communities and the issues shaping daily life in East Leeds.
Divisive content, AI noise and online rumours spread faster than ever. At the same time, many mainstream outlets are stretched and rarely spotlight the community organisations and local champions who deserve recognition.
East Side Story was created to change that. We answer only to our readers. We have no corporate owners or billionaire funders. Our journalists report freely, ask difficult questions and hold power to account.
Your support helps us keep this work going. Monthly contributions make the biggest impact because they allow us to invest in deeper reporting and fearless local journalism.
Supporters also receive exclusive updates, behind the scenes insights and other benefits as a thank you for keeping independent journalism alive.
