All hands on deck this Saturday as we have a new tree fern being delivered to replace the one on the right side which has sadly had a slow death.<br />
We will need to remove the dead one and replace it with a new one so spades at the ready and it will be rather heavy so we need some muscles.<br />
<br />
We also need to generally tidy up the garden too including some cutting back and turning over the earth and a bit of feeding up too.<br />

Looking further ahead to next month with the Seed Planting - Willow Weaving Event and Easter Egg Hunt activity in the Community Garden on Sat 9th April -<br />
We would be very grateful if you are turning out your shed please do donate any small plastic pots for the children to plant seeds up into ( True recycling at its best) and also we would be grateful for any seed donations if you have any in that shed of yours.<br />
ie Sun Flowers / Nasturtiums / Broad Beans etc - anything easy with a quick result is best -<br />
