GoodGym Richmond sponsor The Three Pigeons Plot, The Arcade and the Benches in Beuccleuch Gardens, on the Thames Path just before Petersham Meadow.

Help our plants , particularly recent additions at The Three Pigeons Plot and around some of the benches nearby, to get through this latest heatwave and get established.

If you can spare 20mins+ to water, you'll find watering cans to the left of the brick Arcade, next to the compost heap. The session is listed for 7pm but can be done at any time. There are other similar watering sessions listed for other days. This a self-led session. There will be no leader present.

Water has to be drawn from the Thames at the bottom of the steps by the Three Pigeons Plot. please be careful at the bottom of the steps as it can get slippy and ensure you wash or sanitise your hands after watering ( there is a public toilet at Eileen's cafe which is just a bit further along Buccleuch Gardens, just before Petersham Meadow).

The new planting has been marked with little flags (scraps of florescent green fabric attached to bamboo stakes).

The entrance to Buccleuch Gardens, on the Thames Path, is off the Petersham Road directly opposite the Petersham Road Entrance to Terrace Gardens. The 'Three Pigeons Plot' with it's Insect Hotel is here and The Arcade is about 200m along the Thames path in the Petersham/Ham/Kingston direction.
