We have been working to develop our knowledge of gardening, make the garden more accessible, learn new skills and work together to improve our wellbeing. We have received a variety of seeds to plant in the garden, a growing calendar and certificates. Thank you to all of our amazing volunteers who help to make this happen! Next step- Level 3!
