Exhibition or performance space, kitchen or dining area, cinema or workshop, the glasshouse is a space that exudes and feeds creativity.

The creative space between people and nature. The Gardens are a space for education, exhibition and entertainment in food and nature.

The culture at OmVed Kitchens is one of sustainability, wholeness and health. It is at the forefront of everything that we do

The Journal is a collection of articles, recipes and videography that raise awareness of our environment and the global initiatives that feed us.

We are reinterpreting the task of the Contractors Yard by exploring how to create a partnership with nature.

Our quiet corner of the city is a well-kept secret. We invite friends old and new to join us for events throughout the year.

Omved is an urban greenscape nestled behind Highgate High Street. OmVed means learning from everything; in this spirit, we seek to nurture, create and contemplate.
