Company Drinks is a 10 min walk from Barking Station. Use the first gate into the park and follow the car park signs.
Our Community Open Day is a family friendly, intergenerational offer for everyone who enjoys a calm communal atmosphere.
Our garden and pavilion are used throughout the year by local residents and communities for a range of organised and self-led programmes.
Situated within Barking Park, the 2000 sqm garden is a calm and safe outdoor space where we tend nature and our wellbeing. The pavilion has a club room and a training and production kitchen where we produce a range of locally picked seasonal drinks.
The Community Open Day is our annual celebration of creating and being in "good company". We see ourselves as an ecosystem that is shaped by the interests of its users, members, collaborators and the seasons.
We refer to ourselves as ‘Good Company’ because we are committed to supporting sustainable livelihoods, alongside nurturing local culture and nature, and working towards social change.
