Welcome to the GreenWood Family Park Eco Hub.

Explore, learn, and embrace a greener lifestyle with GreenWood Family Park.

We like to think, we’re a fun family park with purpose.

We’re all about going green, reducing waste and looking after nature and our precious planet. That’s why 80% of the energy used to run the park, is generated from the sun via our huge solar array system.

We’re here to help give you ways to carry on the GreenWood fun, even after you head home.

Our GET INVOLVED section is ideal for families eager to explore eco-friendly activities. From crafting your own paper and clothing to hosting exciting workshops, it’s a fantastic way to turn weekends, birthdays, or any day into engaging, low-pressure experiences that foster eco-friendly habits.

Going green is fun - let us show you how!
