Arranging and planting 🌵

Thursday 15th July 2021

Written by Sarah Beck

Katy, Dawn and I planted a whole selection of plants at a new community garden in Kennington!

We arrived to meet Jerome who was organising the garden and a few local residents who came to help out. - first job was to arrange about 50 plants along the front of the park - once they were nicely spread out we started digging. Luckily the soil was soft and we were able to make quick progress - Jerome then reappeared with a selection of succulents which needed a flower bed created - We dug a semi circle and did some artistic plant arranging

One of the residents is going to keep an eye on the plants and keep them watered in the hot weather! We will be back soon for the next stages of the garden.
