Transforming outdoor spaces. Connecting people with nature.
Hackney Outdoors helps London schools, community groups and businesses turn underused outdoor spaces into greener, more useful places — while bringing people together through outdoor learning, volunteering, nature wellbeing and hands-on plant experiences.
🌱 We create.
Greener spaces for people and wildlife. We help schools, community groups and site owners transform underused outdoor spaces into biodiverse gardens, growing areas, wildlife habitats and places to learn, play and gather.
🌳 We connect.
People with nature and each other. Through Urban Forest School, outdoor learning, gardening, herbalism, arts and crafts, we create opportunities to learn, play, grow and benefit from time outdoors.
🌿 We explore.
Nature connection through plants and herbs. We run herbal workshops, plant walks and nature wellbeing experiences for community groups and corporate teams, helping people discover ways to bring plants into their daily routines.
🍃 Schools & communities
Make more of your outdoor space. We help schools, charities and community groups transform underused grounds into places for biodiversity, play, learning and Urban Forest School.
🌻 Corporates
Give your team a meaningful day outdoors. We organise hands-on corporate volunteering and nature wellbeing experiences that bring teams together and create positive change.
🌱 Groups & teams
Explore plants, herbs and nature through hands-on workshops, walks and nature wellbeing experiences designed for your group or team. We can cater for most needs and interests.
