Parent and child outdoor activities

Another of the key features of Thistle Outdoors is our Community Wildlife Garden: a place for people of all ages. Entirely organic, the garden is extensively planted with a variety of herbaceous plants, native shrubs and small trees. The garden also features an accessible patio area, which is the ideal spot to enjoy lunch in the sun during the summer months.

The garden is also a focal point of our outdoor educational work, featuring activities for both children and adults in the Craigmillar area.
The garden is open everyday to members of the public and is free of charge.
