About us

We are the Rainbow Garden Hull

In 1997, local residents began transforming a piece of waste land off Levisham Close North Hull. This became the Rainbow Garden, officially opened in 1998. Since then the garden has thrived.

We have established trees, herbs, shrubs and each year grow vegetables and salad crops. We also have some wildlife areas. As well as gardening, we offer activities for children during the school holidays, including arts and crafts, bug hunts and multicultural activities.

We are partners in the Local Food Project, encouraging local residents to ‘Grow their Own’ and have given assistance to groups and schools across the city who are looking to cultivate their own patch of land. Over the years we have also planted over 2000 saplings in various area around Northern Hull.
