Dylways Garden

[buddug]

Today I went to Dylways Garden to collect some hollyhock seeds. I came away with a lot more! But my goodness, what a garden! It's lovely. Even at this time of year when gardens, including mine, look terrible. The people in charge are putting in so much work to make this patch a little oasis of loveliness. And now they have a grant, thank goodness, and they are putting it to such good use.

I can only urge people who have the time to go and give a little help. Maybe just an hour a week. And you'll be fed and watered as you work! It's amazing what has been achieved. Community action at work! And something that could be achieved throughout the borough.

its well worth heading down there to help out even if its just for a short while. Its really good what they have done to the garden on such a tight budget

Thank you so much to both A and chris.

I appreciate your encouraging and supporting comments .

Yes we have achieved quite alot this summer even with just 4 or people popping in now and then.

It would be really appreciated if more volunteers cdould offer an hour here and there. we are trying to get winter growing up and running, I am looking for help to make a veg patch 9 by 3.5ft if any one can with getting it on its way That would be great.

Yes Anne I love sharing the plants I grow and we sell them cheaply too to raise more funds for next springs

Plants seeds/materials etc.

The funding will be spent to create a lovely seating /eating area and a nice dog Run fo the residents that have dogs, and some nice plants.

So yes even though summer is on its way out we are still out there trying to get a little more

done before the real winter days arrive.

If any one can come along and help out that would be great.

Free plants to all volunteers through out the year, and you shall be fed and watered as always whilst your here.

Hope to hear from some of you even if its for an hour only That hour is precious to us.

Where are you based? And what are the hours that you are "open" so to speak? Do volunteers need to bring anything with them?
