M.U.D Group, Commune with the natural world.

Summary: Representing a collective group of individuals, they bring together Lewisham based 18 - 25 year olds wanting to connect with the natural world.

Further Details:

ⓜ.ⓤ.ⓓ is a group for Lewisham-borough-based 18-25-year-olds wanting to commune with the natural world.

We work with the plants, soil, humans, and non-humans around us to find community and wellbeing in the city.

In a typical session, we might be : propagating plants, sowing seeds and tending to food crops, making ceramics, writing poetry, exposing cyanotypes, foraging on our land or neighbouring green spaces, arranging flowers, screening films, cooking etc… These ideas are all co-designed amongst the group. Participants can stay with us until their schedules change (or they reach the age of 26).

We also do offsite trips and collaborate with institutes like TATE galleries and Garden Museum.
