Castlehaven Community Park: A Gardening and Growing Haven!
Castlehaven Community Park is in the heart of Camden Town and the largest stretch of green space in the area. We’re supporting a growing community.

Castlehaven Community Park and The Horticultural Hub
Castlehaven Community Park sits at the heart of the community. We’re dedicated to providing a natural and beautiful space for families to grow, play and learn. We have a floodlit astro turf sports pitch in the middle of the main community park, which is used heavily by children and adults throughout the year! Surrounding this are green areas where people sit, relax, exercise and dog walk. We also have yearly community festivals held within our community parks for all to enjoy.
We provide engaging and educating workshops through our Horticultural Hub and encourage the local community to get fit and active with our regular gardening sessions.
The Horticultural Hub
The dereclict site of our Horticulture Hub in May 2017 and our Horticulture Hub now.
Since the Hub opened in October 2017 we’ve been engaging the local community with gardening workshops and arts & craft activities, as well as providing a much-needed green space in the middle of Camden.
We grow our own food, everything from radishes to runner beans, which is then used in Castlehaven’s cookery workshops and sold in our Friday Plant & Veg Shop.
The Hub is managed by a dedicated team of volunteers, so if you’d like to get involved, pop into the Haven or email our Environmental Engagement Coordinator Nichola Daunton.
All Horticulture Hub activities are currently cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
As an alternative we are hosting free virtual Zoomshops every Tuesday & Thursday at 12pm. For details please email nichola@castlehaven.org.uk.
