Priory Growing Group

Every Thursday at one, we meet,
With friendly faces, smiles so sweet.
Since October twenty-four,
We’ve grown together, more and more.

When sunshine warms the garden ground,
We plant and grow with friends around.
With fruit and flowers, veg so bright,
We watch our little garden thrive.

And when the winter winds blow cold,
We gather in, with stories told.
With crafts and laughter, side by side,
There’s always friendship warm inside.

Pete, Rebecca, Kayleigh too,
And Kourtney lead us through and through.
But growing isn’t just the seed—
It’s friendships, laughter, and a shared need.

Two hours each week, a time to share,
To meet with friends who really care.
For every plant that reaches high,
A friendship grows beneath the sky.

Priory Growing Group — together we grow,
Through every season, we laugh and know:
The greatest thing our group has sown
Is friendship, making us feel at home.
