No experience required!

We return to pretty Columbia Road for another fantastic gardening workout!

Tonight's activity: Everything you need to know

• We will be meeting with Ed and other members of the Columbia TRA to help with watering the estate gardens this evening!*

• We will be working all over the Estate, heading to different areas of these lovely gardens, headed up by the committed local team!*

Background to the task

The Columbia Road Estates are home to many residents, many of whom don't have gardens. By working together, along with TH Council, residents are aiming to create gardens that can be used and enjoyed by all residents.

Fruit trees and herbaceous borders have been planted; cherry trees have been donated and planted, and an irrigation hose installed into one of the front gardens (FYI: an irrigation hose allows water to head directly into the soil, using less water and ending up more effective for trees and plants).

Residents are aiming to: support the council in making the gardens appealing and usable to all residents; slowly start growing food for all residents to enjoy; keep the habitat of insects and other wildlife in tact.
