Royal Weeding Day, 29th April 2011

 

On this very special day, we'd like to bring you a message from our pals at Guerilla Gardening:

"On this day HRH Prince William and Kate Middleton will wed, and to celebrate, Britain has been given a public holiday. What better way to spend a little of our time than with a weeding of our own, wherever we are? It's time to bow down and show some love to your local landscape, pluck a weed or more from the ground, and start thinking what you could sow instead. Imagine the nation out in the streets, sprucing up the area and starting new loving partnerships with the land."

We couldn't agree more, and will be down at the Greening Brownfield community garden and other parts of the Brownfield estate ripping up weeds and making our locale a little more gorgeous-looking. In the meantime, we'd like to wish you a happy Royal Weeding Day. You can sign up for the event at Facebook here, or just get weeding, wherever you are.

If all that weeding's got you bitten by the gardening bug, don't forget that the garden is open this Sunday May 1st, 2pm-4pm, for Sunday Grow Club. Feel free to drop in and chat to the lovely Keith. He'll be happy to tell you how you can get involved.
