OmVed Gardens

“A small garden with big ideas,” OmVed Gardens is located in North London, on a hill that was once covered in asphalt. Founded by Karen Leason, this ecological space aims to reconnect people with nature and to demonstrate the impact of a regenerative approach to the environment in improving health and climate resilience.
With its vegetable garden, exhibition spaces, and dining area, this multidisciplinary place — where visitors can wander among wild plants — is above all a space for sharing.
The OmVed kitchen, led by chefs Georgia Dowling and Josephine Marchandise, is a space for researching, learning, teaching and sharing knowledge about sustainable culinary practices, where chefs and food experts from around the world connect and everyone learns how to nourish their bodies, their souls and the soil.
Since the beginning of this inspiring journey, chef Arthur Potts Dawson has also contributed to the development of the kitchen.
