Each of the Friends were presented a certificate by The Worshipful Mayor of Wigan Borough, Councillor Debbie Parkinson, and her Consort Councillor Terry Mugan. The certificate citation reads " In recognition of your dedicated service as a member of the Friends of Haigh Walled Kitchen Garden and your exceptional contribution to the Parish of Haigh.

Thank you to all our followers and visitors to the garden. A big thank you for your encouragement and praise and the generous donations for produce and at our events, which helped us to maintain and enhance the garden.
As we wanted to stay together as a self managing gardening group we have now moved plants and equipment, to the allotment site at the back of Mesnes Park Wigan. A generous thank you to the horticultural team for their stirling efforts over 5 days last week.
This years activities at Mesnes park will be trying to clear the plot of rubbish, controlling weeds, repairing / replacing and planning for the future as well as preparing to enter a lease agreement with Wigan Council.
If you would like to help us by volunteering, with gardening activities, administration or social media management please get in touch initially by emailing [email protected]
We will be closing this page in the near future. We have posted some lovely photos of the garden taken by one of our volunteers as a last memory of what it was.
