The Crown Estate is looking to create a Community Garden at Cherry Tree Lane in partnership with Sunnyside Rural Trust, a local charity and social enterprise.
The location of the proposed site can be found HERE using what3words.
We hope that this community garden can become a place for local residents to enjoy, bringing benefits to physical health and mental wellbeing and also providing new habitats for local wildlife and improving biodiversity.
We want to hear from you and so we are asking local residents for views on our initial ideas, and to help make the space your own by letting us know what you would like to see in the garden. You can download information on the approach, benefits and suggested designs for the community garden HERE
We welcome your thoughts and views. If you would like to submit your feedback and stay updated on the Community Garden, please email using the button below:
East Hemel is a 350 hectare area of land, owned by The Crown Estate, where we have the potential to develop new, inclusive and sustainable neighbourhoods, creating homes, workplaces and recreational space for the next generation whilst enhancing the existing local area. The land forms part of the Hemel Garden Communities (HGC) growth area. We are working closely with HGC, the councils and communities to take a different and innovative approach to developing the growth area to make sure it is designed to meet the needs of the local communities today and for the future.
The Crown Estate has recently commenced work on a planning application for our East Hemel site. This website aims to keep local residents and interested parties updated as we progress with the application.
This website will be updated over the summer and we will be reaching out to local communities in September, ahead of undertaking extensive public consultations later this year and beyond.
