We’re excited to share some of the fantastic developments that have taken place: The area in front of the polytunnel has been transformed with new paving, turning a once muddy patch into a practical and inviting working space. Our IBC containers are now in place, and the potting shed guttering has been connected to them – we’re officially harvesting rainwater! A great step towards promoting sustainable gardening practices. The Bug Hotel has officially opened its doors! A five-star experience for all our creepy-crawly guests – we can’t wait to see who checks in. We’ve doubled the size of our wildlife and pollinator garden, creating a richer habitat that supports biodiversity and welcomes even more pollinating insects. Behind the polytunnel, we’ve expanded our growing area, allowing us to cultivate a wider variety of crops, giving our children even more hands-on gardening experiences. A huge thank you to everyone who has helped our School Gardening Club to make these improvements possible. Our garden is thriving, and we’re so excited for what’s to come!
