Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Community Dig in Hornsey Park!
Corner of Hornsey Park Road and Clarendon Road, N8, (literally across the road from Harringay):
We are organising a working party on the next Saturday, 27th March from 10am to 12pm, to prepare the ground for the new topsoil and planting.
It will make a huge difference to this end of the road and will create a gateway to both our area but also the Heartlands and the way though to the new school.
The ground needs digging over - no small task, after years of compaction and neglect. The landscaper can't use a rotavator because of cables - so it must be done by hand.
We need to do it in one go, so that the landscaping can follow before the end of the planting season in April.
This time, a local business will be helping us with refreshments, changing, rest and toilet facilities.
You (and a fork) would be very welcome. We are hoping for lots of small contributions rather than heroic, Charlie Dimmock style efforts.
More details on our web site at http://www.pmra.co.uk - hope to see you there!

A big well done to everyone who has been involved in this project.
I am working on Saturday, but I will do my utmost to stop by between 10 and 12 even if it is a flying visit, I am sure I can dig over a 4ft x 4ft square.
It will be great to brighten up that corner and it's always great to see neighbours mucking in and getting to know each other!
I have created a blog post about this with the intention of spreading the word, and offering some support.
I hope the weather is kind, good luck.

Thanks Steve, looking forward to meeting you!
Should be a fun day out whatever happens, looks like I'll finally get to use all those gardening tools I bought years ago...
