Preparing the Garden for the winter months
Our Autumn Gardening Day was a great success! Lots of volunteers came along. We planted colourful winter pansies and cyclamen and gave the garden a good tidy. Thank you to all who helped to sweep and gather the fallen leaves. And our younger helpers did a brilliant job of stomping on top of the leaf piles!
The Garden will go to sleep for a bit during the winter. But keep a watch for the early spring bulbs planted by our volunteers.
