We’ve gone a bit spooky in the wildlife garden 💀 🎃 . They should be lit up when it’s dark so pop by - you’ll need a torch to find your way. It wasn’t all play - lots of sweeping and raking as well as clearing and planting - such a lovely day for being in the gardens. Oh and a little robin friend came for a visit 🌺

Just some shots over the last week and a cat 🐈‍⬛ visitor who hangs about when we’re having cake 🍰

Our nature garden project funded by Big Sparks is coming along nicely now that we aren’t so diverted by lugging watering cans around the gardens. Also continuing the willow border to make a nice defined edge.
