Last night we returned to one of our regular projects at Sloane Court, its been amazing to see how much this garden has transformed since we've been involved with it. This time we were doing some weeding to keep everything in order and looking good.

We split into two groups of three, one group tackled the rear garden and the other the front. Frances, Jason and Susan did an amazing job clearing the patio in the front garden of weeds and then got to work on the planting bed, clearing all the unwanted plants. Although I think Susan and Frannie did more of the work as Jason indulged in some of our hosts stories, if you've never heard them you should he has led a fascinating life.

Rosie and Diego spent the evening clearing the main bed at the rear we've been working on for a while now and it's starting to look great ready for the growing season. I weeded the patio at the rear that we've also done a lot of work to clear over the years.

All in all it was really satisfying to keep the gardens in good order and some of the areas are really starting to take shape. No doubt we will be back to soon to continue the work!
