As Spring approaches we’re looking forward to seeing lots of volunteers, and lots of produce and flowers in the garden again. We have now started sowing seeds in the warmth and protection of the greenhouse to start off the new season’s planting.
During March and April volunteer sessions will be Saturdays between 10 am -2 pm
We also hope to start a midweek volunteer session soon.
There are also a number of events:
