Local Community Garden

We are getting 16 Apple Trees delivered and planted tomorrow .

Hope weather holds out long enough.

The next project we want to make a herb raised bed .

This will for anyone who has difficulty bending that they can still come and help in garden .

As we depend on volunteers but not many turning up.

Its sad as we have turned this blank canvas of weeds now into a working garden of flowers and a veggie garden.

We have our bottle greenhouse and summer house to.

Last year I planted loads of donated snowdrops so looking forward now to seeing a carpet of snowdrops .

 

Hope you have better luck than our Community Project..we planted about a dozen trees two years ago, - about six weeks ago someone broke into our gardens and stole the lot !

As I have the end allotment, I was approached by the council for my thoughts on just such a project. I suggested they spend good money on substantial railings around each tree. I planted a load of wild flowers in the rough ground next to my allotment, all marked just to see which would grow best in that type of soil. The lot were strimmed by council contractors. So I'm not holding my breath. Best wishes and luck. Cheers, Tony.

 

We are now into our 3 yr and is open plan and all still intact .

 

All planted 16 Stobo Castle Apple trees
