Klosterträdgården vid Järfälla kyrka: The monastery garden is cultivated using ecologically sustainable methods by people undertaking work training within the parish. The garden contains an outdoor church. During the summer, the garden is used for café and programme activities, as well as by the parish's summer-open preschool.

In the monastery garden, both the herbal remedies of monastic tradition and other useful plants are grown using ecologically sustainable cultivation methods. There is an outdoor church with an altar built from recycled gravestones from Järfälla churchyard, where devotions and services can be held during the summer half of the year. The garden is one of several venues for work training and rehabilitation within the parish.

During the summer, café and programme activities as well as a summer-open preschool are run in the monastery garden.
