Cardross Community Organic Garden (COG)

In 2026, Cardross Community Organic Garden won the Keep Scotland Beautiful Award: Railway Stations in Bloom, and were the overall UK winner of the Royal Horticultural Society Award: Railway Stations in Bloom!

Cardross Community Organic Garden (COG) is part of Cardross Climate Action Network. They are a group of volunteers at Cardross Railway station who adopted the station in 2022 and have transformed neglected areas throughout the station grounds into vibrant areas, growing cultivated and wildflowers designed to attract insects and wildlife, increasing biodiversity and giving visual and sensory enjoyment to everyone in the community and those using the station. They also grow herbs, vegetables and fruits for all to enjoy, and very much encourage anyone to come join them whether to help in the gardens or enjoy the scenery and chat away.
