Yesterday’s session was another extremely busy one, we’re certainly getting through the tasks we’ve set ourselves.
We started off our session with a delicious slice of rhubarb tart. A few children had helped Angie pick some of the rhubarb that we are growing and Angie made it into a tart for us to try. We all agreed it was yummy! If you would like any rhubarb for yourselves please get in touch with Mrs Devlin, we have plenty to go round!
We had groups of children sowing some vegetable seeds, our long term plan is to eventually set up our very own ‘Farmers’ Market’ and sell our produce at the school gates and at events…keep your eyes peeled for that.
During the session we had another group weaving the unruly willow tunnel that had been left untouched for over a year. It needed to be tamed and put back into a tunnel shape, we think that it’s starting to look fantastic!
Another group were weeding the paths so that the stones can be replaced and the beds refreshed. Unfortunately the beds are getting to a point where they are starting to crumble so will be needing sorting as soon as possible.
We also had leeks, red onion and chilli’s to plant, kindly donated to Gardening Club by Mr Goodwin and Mrs Maclaren.
A very busy afternoon indeed!
If you would like to offer some time, plants or expertise to Gardening Club, we would be most grateful.
