Growing Update:
We have been busy with the young people from our Stepping Stones alternative provision programme.
- Beetroot, Broad Beans, Swede, Radishes, Potatoes and Lettuce have been planted out, 🥔🫛🥬
- New Zealand Spinach, Kale, Chard, Runner Beans, Climbing French Beans, Leek, Broccoli, Tomatoes, Sweetcorn, Rainbow Corn and Carrots growing nicely 🌽🥕🥦🍅
- Dahlia, Hollyhocks, Cosmos, Blue Flax, Zinnia, Calendula, Marigold and Sunflowers also growing nicely🌻 🌺🌼
The young people have developed a wildflower area and are excitedly waiting for the flowers to appear this spring!
We are incredibly grateful to for their seed and compost donation and our volunteers - Karen Mounter, Della George and Daryl Clough along with our young adult mentor team who help with their time and effort with the allotment and wildlife garden.
A big shout out to our wonderful allotment community who are always eager to share their growing advice and support. It does feel like a village supporting our social impact enterprise.
