Anne and I met the lovely Tasha from ecoACTIVE at the Upcott Community Garden to help fill some flower beds.

With the help of 1.5 wheel barrows (1 good and 1 dodgy), we moved topsoil and compost to fill the new beds. We also met some very excited kids keen to know what we were doing and what would be grown in the beds. Tasha explained that ecoACTIVE are providing the beds to residents to grow their own fruit and vegetables and learn gardening skills.
