The Vertical Garden, Wisbech

Blackfield Creatives was proud to work in partnership with Clarion Futures  and  Wisbech Town Council  on the Vertical Garden Project in Wisbech Park. 

This exciting project was developed in response to feedback given by members of the local Wisbech community during a Social Innovation Lab event and we are grateful to Clarion Futures for funding the programme. The project involved the development of a vertical garden, using recycled materials, which was affixed to one of the public buildings in Wisbech Park. In effect, this ‘living wall’ became a focal point that was enjoyed by everyone. 

The base framework and the Garden were built with support from the students and staff at Olive Academy and volunteers from People & Animals, the Ferry Project, Fenland District Council, the Getting It Sorted Volunteer Group and Wisbech In Bloom, together with members of the community.
