Joyce and Snell’s community garden project

Enfield Council is working with Organic Lea on a community garden project designed for Joyce Avenue and Snell’s Park residents.

The project is located behind Boundary Hall, 7 Snell’s Park, N18 2SY.

A number of residents are already part of the project and have grown various vegetables and fruits. To join the project, please email joyceandsnells@enfield.gov.uk.

Here are some quotes from residents about the project.

“It’s amazing to be able to grow what you eat organically.” - Marcia, Snell’s Park.

“Knowing I have the opportunity to grow Mauritian vegetables in the UK is an absolute joy.” - Nazida, Snell’s Park.

DJ/MC Academy programme

Young residents of Joyce and Snell's took part in the DJ/MC Academy programme so they could showcase their fantastic lyrical skills. This took place every Tuesday for 5 weeks on the estate. Attendees were up to the ages of 17 and absolutely loved the programme.
