It's been a busy week for the garden group as we prepared for the Britain in bloom judging today. It was hungry work, so thanks to our neighbours Reach Out and the Foyer for providing a tasty lunch using veggies grown at the site! 😁 The ADA polytunnel is looking great just now! Why not join us sometime? Just contact Anne at Hadden St for more details 😉🌱
