Bulb-Planting

The residents of Stoneyburn and Bents can look forward to a brighter community next spring, thanks to the efforts of the Eco Group from Our Lady’s Primary and Primary 3 pupils from Stoneyburn Primary with a lot of help from the Environmental wardens and workers from West Lothian Council today. While the adults manfully (and womanfully) dug lots of holes in the (rock hard) grass verge on the road leading East out of the village, the children planted hundreds of daffodil bulbs and replaced the turf faster than the holes could be dug! So far, we have reached just past the ‘Stoneyburn Welcome Sign’ with planting, but we hope to extend right down to the traffic-lights at the end of the road before we’re finished. Other dates for more groups of children to take part in the project will be arranged for the near future. A big ‘Thank you’ to anyone who helped out in any way in today’s efforts. If you’re interested in coming along to help dig some more holes, leave a post on this Blog.
