With humble
beginnings in 1998 as a room of bare bricks and newspaper cuttings, the
College is celebrating its ten-year anniversary this year. The progress of the
College (both in the info centre as well as the garden) has been marked by a
few big changes. Briefly hosting around 100 plants and then a more humble five,
the original College was lost to a fire in 2002, leading to a renovation of the

information centre has also been updated, including some new displays and
exciting merchandise. Small trinkets like badges and stickers have a fresh look

spread the word the College has adopted an improved design on our logo
merchandise, retailing shirts and hooded jumpers that are constructed of a
blend of organically-grown hemp, bamboo and soy fibres and are the latest
trend in the hemp fashion industry.
