We harvest surplus fruit, we plant orchards, hedgerows and trees, we try and reconnect people with nature and protect it in an urban setting, we create beautiful spaces, mainly through planting but also through art.
We are a voluntary organisation with charitable aims, founded in 2010. We aim to work with local schools, volunteers, businesses, community groups and local government. View the Abundance London Constitution.
