City Forest Garden – Forest City Projects CIC

Our flagship project and the reason we exist, Forest City Projects was formed when we realised we had the skills and experience to do more great work like this. We’re still working on City Forest Garden to this day, creating community gardening groups, planning art installations, events and making it into the most wonderful space we can possibly imagine.

"Breathing new light into dark spaces, sparking new energy in communities, and literally giving life to places where it has long been removed - this is the role Forest plays in Chester. Collaboration and partnership working is the key to their success and I have been inspired through their achievements in our city."

"Forest created this space that not only is beautiful and a huge improvement in a neglected area but inspires our city to think about the climate emergency"

"If you think about it, I suppose it might seem a bit weird to actively choose to go and sit in the middle of a very busy roundabout to relax and eat your lunch. But when it's in the City Forest Garden, I absolutely love it"
