We would like you join
us for a little gardening session at 10:00 am on Saturday 21st July 2018 to
help plant up our new Station Road Community Garden Planters.
We've found an 'unloved'
spot and thanks to a grant from Chinnor Parish Council, we are placing three
beautiful and robust planters on the small triangular piece of land on Station
Road adjacent to the vehicular entrance to the library, Pavilion and St Andrew's
School.
Shortly these planters
should be joined by a WW1 memorial bench to enable villagers to sit and enjoy
the space. This planting is intended to complement the herb planter we put out
in May adjacent to the Pavilion.
Our aim is to eventually have a network of
accessible community food throughout Chinnor – our community’s contribution towards
incredible edible Chinnor.
We are delighted that
our planters have been fabricated to a professional standard by one of our team
of repair café fixers who probably wants to stay anonymous (thanks Ted) and
also to the CPC grounds team who have assisted in moving them to site.
During the week the
planters will be made ready for use and on this Saturday we will be planting
all of our treasures.
Our intention with
the planters is to fulfil three of the senses
- · Touch – ‘Touch me’
- · Sight – ‘See me’
- · Smell – ‘Smell me’
We have an extensive
range of planting to put in place on Saturday morning and the community garden is for all to enjoy and to take part in. So
come and join us and most importantly bring your young growers along to give a
hand.
