This year’s Get Growing Trail will be the weekend of 12-13 September 2026. Bristol’s vibrant community of fruit and vegetable gardens will open their gates for a wonderful weekend of community growing and connection.

Dive into Bristol’s vibrant community of fruit and vegetable gardens, encompassing allotments, orchards, and urban farms. Last year’s trail ran over the weekend of 20-21 September and offered a unique opportunity to explore the city’s green spaces and get involved with community growing, all while enjoying free entry to these lush havens. 

For those looking to connect, volunteer, learn new skills or simply enjoy the fruits of Bristol’s urban harvest, the Get Growing Trail 2025 is an open invitation to be inspired by what’s possible when communities come together to grow.

Entrance to all gardens is free. Some sites are open on just the Saturday, some the Sunday, some on both days – see the website for full details, activities and directions at: bristolgoodfood.org/ggt
