The Triangle Garden is a community garden open to people of all ages and abilities in Hitchin, Hertfordshire. Our vision is for a community where people feel happier and more fulfilled through a connection with the natural world and an understanding of our place in it.
As well as offering volunteering opportunities and holding community events, we provide supported land-based opportunities for people of all abilities to improve their health and resilience, self-esteem and well-being, life skills and independence. Alongside this we actively nurture a connection with nature and the process of gardening, with all the therapeutic and restorative benefits that have been shown to bring.
The Triangle Garden is one of several spaces we manage for and with the community. We also have a number of allotments, a forest garden and a small community building, with potential for further expansion in our local area.
We are a small organisation with four part-time employees delivering our services. As such this role will need to pivot between being ‘hands-on’ as well as strategic.
We aim to bring people of all ages and abilities together, to enjoy the benefits of community gardening and strengthen our connection with the natural world.

We help people of all ages & abilities take part in activities such as growing food...
