We picked up some spring flowers at Manchester’s quirky garden centre like no other in the city

A garden centre in the heart of Manchester's urban environment offers locals respite from bustling city life, and provides a range of well-being and learning opportunities for the community.

Hulme Community Garden Centre is a unique site committed to promoting healthy living while gardening through a volunteer and education hub, community activities, and more. Activities at the centre include: SEN classes, toddlers, wellbeing group, and more.

The vibrant garden centre was established in 2000 and sells ethical and sustainably sourced plants. Now, spring is here; the flowers are beginning to bloom, and more and more people are checking out what the site has to offer.

We went down to take a look at the centre and community space, and find out which plants we should be buying for spring.
