CSM staff and students braved the cold to help out at the King’s Cross Skip Garden, based behind our new building.

The movable Skip Garden at King’s Cross consists of seven construction skips which have been transformed into mini gardens including an orchard, a wormery, a poly-tunnel skip, a herb skip and three crop-rotation skips. They are gardened by volunteers and young people from the local area, many of whom don’t have gardens of their own.

Volunteers from Central Saint Martins got involved in painting a shed that will provide a space for gardeners to take a break and reflect on their handywork.
