Discover the Joy of Nature

Great spaces. That’s what we try to with every project we do. 

Connecting Communities to Nature

The Eden-field Project | About Us

Our Purpose:

Great spaces is our ethos. We are lucky to have access to amazing spaces, and so it is up to us, as custodians of these spaces, to make them great spaces.

These physical spaces anchor us in the community we inhabit, and so we owe it to that community to deliver great spaces that serve the community they are in. 

The Eden-field Project is the manifestation of this purpose, a space within the community of Edenfield which can be a great space that serves the community for the better. 

We: 

– work with and nurture the land

– open the space up to the community 

– educate and share

– reinvest in to the area

Our Journey

A Timeline of Growth and Discovery

From our early days to where we are now, our journey has been filled with wonderful milestones. Each step reflects our commitment to creating a ‘great space’. Over the years, we’ve built the project up, nurtured the land, and hopefully created a space for education and conservation.
