Dear Penge Green Gym Supporters
Happy Easter from Winsford Gardens
We have had a busy couple of months here at
Winsford Gardens. Our winter projects have included building raised beds
at the Croydon Road entrance, these are now complete and we will be
filling them with soil in preparation for new plants that will brighten
up the entrance and encourage new visitors to the gardens.
We have also been expanding the 4th rose bed and creating a hazel fence
around it. It has now been filled with roses that were bought with a
grant from the Metropolitan Public Gardens Association. This is the
second grant from the MPGA for our formal rose beds. Many thanks to
them for all their help.
Spring is also well and truly on the way and we have been using our brand new cold frames to keep our new seedlings warm.
Also, thanks to a generous donation of rocks, we have built a new
rockery wall near to the Garden Road entrance. We will be able to plant
this up with rockery plants in the next few months.
Thank you
We would like to say a big thank you to all
the local people who come to the gardens and tell us how much they like
what we are doing. It is always very gratifying to hear that our work
is appreciated. We'd especially like to thank the lady who brought us a
box of biscuits to say thank you. They were lovely!
Volunteers
We have been lucky enough to welcome some
new volunteers to our ranks over the last couple of months. It is always
exciting to hand out our t-shirts on the volunteers 4th session.
