Bring your favourite gardening gloves and secatuers if you have them, but we’ll also have spare gear you can borrow. And if you don’t have two hours to spare, but drop in for as long as you can manage.
Sometimes there is cake, often there is good chat, and always there are weeds to pull. In time, we hope to have some autumn/winter planting sessions.
