Lots of work was achieved on Sunday. Lemuel (WCC park ranger) has offered to comeĀ  to mulch all the weeds and take rubbish away, so this Sunday we want to put all the weeds and rubbish in piles (bring gloves). We have marked out two paths and an area for the community garden. There is plenty of space for locals who want their own plot as well, if you want to come and claim some.

Cheers, Grant

Today we had 3 people with lots of gardening experience (Brenda from View Road and Jacob and Hannah from Dirt Doctors) so we made some plans for the community garden. We are going to have a working bee next Sunday at 2 pm to create a compost and a pathway. We also had discussion about allotments and how to mange the garden so will continue that next Sunday. Bring a spade, slasher or mulching tools if you have them.

See you there, Grant

A meeting is happening tomorrow at 2 pm to plan the community garden. The site is just north of the school. Best way to get there is to go through the school, past the lower playground. Bring a coat. If it is raining we will be in the school.

See you there, Grant
