Hazelnut Community Bristol stands as the pioneering chapter of the Hazelnut Community Network. 

Located in East Bristol, it is a church plant based around a vibrant community garden.

It also serves as a fertile ground for experimenting with many ideas that have influenced the Hazelnut Community Network.

We hope you can visit - please see our upcoming events below


“It was beautiful to see my kids working as a team outdoors. The entire time had such a warm vibe.” Kath Smith

About our community

Gather

We gather around Creator, Creation, and community. This means we are a Christian worshiping community that is deeply connected to the earth and each other. We grow food together and give it away to the community. If you are in the Bristol area you are welcome to join us! Click on the events tab to find out about our gatherings.

Grow

We are a community that grows together. We grow veg and flowers with the commitment to give away at least 50% of what we grow back into the community. We are a part of ‘The Growing Collective” a network of growing projects, together we make up a patchwork of land across the UK that is growing and giving away food! We aim to grow with sustainable, no-dig methods. We welcome anyone to come along no matter what your experience level.
