Gardening brings joy and connection to everyone, everywhere. We’re thrilled to announce that our Lenny Lemon gardening activity sheets are now available in Kurdish (Kurmanji), alongside English, Arabic, Farsi, Ukrainian, French, Pashto, Somali and Spanish.
Designed for families, schools and community groups, these activity sheets encourage creativity, nurture a love of nature and help build cultural connections. Whether you’re planting at home, supporting pupils in the classroom, or engaging beneficiaries through NGOs and charities, there’s something here for everyone.
