Newbold Community Garden - Good Friday Open Day
On Good Friday we decided to "recruit" a work party by holding an "Open Day" at "The Garden" as it is now known but we all know that "an army marches on it's stomach" so the first thing to do was feed them up before we put them to work.
Once everyone had eaten their fill they all happily set to work. Everyone chipped in with the work, both young and old alike. The main thing was to clear the land so there was a mass litter pick while a couple of the stronger chaps started digging out the roots of the tree stumps. while this was going on a few more set about making a raised bed to plant a hedge on at the far end of the garden.
All in all it was a long and hard day but the end result showed that The Garden had a lot of potential. We would like to extend a huge thank you to all who turned up and helped out!
