Gardening update – October 2020

A strange year indeed, which has seen us open precisely zero times.

However, the garden does not know this and it has required the usual amount of work to keep it in order. It ran rather wild with all the sun and rain but thanks to volunteers including Tina and Kevin, it’s now looking in good shape.

Huge thanks to our volunteers for getting stuck in and doing a lot of hard work to get the garden sorted.
