November 2020 at the Community Garden

This month has seen the ground cleared and prepared ready for more raised beds to be made. One of our volunteers has kindly donated a real Christmas Tree and volunteers have been digging a huge hole, which will hold an IBC to collect the rainwater run off from the polytunnel.
Planting and extending the Food Forest continues. This is really starting to fill out now but still plenty more to be done!
As we head towards winter, our attention has turned to planning for next year, including building the wildlife pond, shelter, developing the children’s natural play area, building more raised beds, plus much more.
A gnome seems to have appeared at the garden?! Still not quite big enough for the IBC Ground prepared for more raised beds Our very own baby Christmas Tree!
Volunteers were busy crafting, making poppies and poppy wreaths we displayed on the entrance gates and in the notice board, in support of Rememberance Sunday and Armistice Day earlier this month.
