Garden Gathering

We had a nice little session decorating plant pots and seed sowing in the garden today. We also felt the rain on our heads for the first time in what seems like ages ☔. It felt nice.

Many thanks to everyone that helped out 😊

We had a lovely family bug safari around Valley Parkway a couple of weeks ago with Project Officer Rebecca. It was lovely to see so many people, despite the slightly rainy weather, and we even finished with a game of Pooh Sticks in Bournville Park! Thank you to all the bugs who showed up to make it such a lovely morning!

April Flowers 🌸

Our community garden at Ley Hill looking resplendent in the spring sunshine today.

The raised beds are coming along with broad beans, garlic, onions, and rhubarb flourishing. Plenty of pretty blossom in the orchard too.

We had a great gardening session this afternoon at our Chatham Place gardening group planting our allotment plot up with potatoes. They were absolutely delicious when we harvested them last year, and the one complaint we received from everyone was that there weren't enough. We have planted so many this year to make up for it that hopefully there should be plenty to go around! 😋🥔
