"War and pestilence might kill large numbers of people, but in most cases the population recovers. But lose the soil and everything goes with it."
Our next workshop is on the importance of soil. Make soil sexy!

Our town collection needs YOU! The Minor Path is in need of some TLC from some overly enthusiastic plants, and we're looking for some folk to help us clear the way. From the banks of the River Bogie, to the train station, to Gladstone park (around 1km), we'll need some helpers for a wee jaunt and bash to help redefine the original path. Be sure to bring long troosers, gloves, sturdy footwear, and a strong stick! We'll be joined by Al Reeve of The Deveron, Bogie & Isla Rivers Charitable Trust & River Deveron District Salmon Fishery Board to talk us through the invasive species we'll be swatting away.
Just what you've been looking for! A reading group expanding upon the Town is the Garden research, comes with breakfast ๐โโ๐
