We intend to be in the garden all day so please come to the same location where we held the Launch Day. There may be vehicles in and around the area delivering materials and equipment so please be careful and keep small children close by.
The first planting day will involve digging our pond, planting some vegetable and herbs beds (as well as making them!) and we'll be making more mosaic stepping stones as well. The activities are suitable for young and old and we need plenty of strong people for shifting stuff about. We'll be constructing the raised beds from scratch so if you know a joiner then bring him or her along with you! :)
If you have any gardening equipment you can bring that would be great but make sure it's labelled and don't leave it unattended on the day. We'll be using spades and wheelbarrows, hammers, drills and screws as well as the usual stuff for planting seeds and pot plants. Bring a big packed lunch - you're going to need it!!!
We'll be in the garden all day but you're free to come and go as you please. Wear suitable clothing and footwear that can get dirty and scuffed and be prepared to get dirty yourself! We've got a surprise planned for later in the day so you can come along, get involved, stick around and make a difference!
