Thanks to the Royal Horticultural Society, we’ve adapted these materials to support families in refugee and internally displaced people (IDP) communities. Together, we’re bringing the joys of gardening to everyone, regardless of background or location.
For refugee and displaced communities
If you’re involved in gardening projects with refugees, asylum seekers or displaced communities in the UK or USA, we can help you grow!

Pair these seeds with our activity sheets to create meaningful and therapeutic gardening experiences. If you’d like to request seeds and activity sheets for your refugee project, simply complete our online form.
