The Leabank Square Gardening Club tackled the Recycled Garden today - and what a massively productive day it was?!
After the obligatory cuppa & delicious yum yums - they set about clearing the north bank of all the weeds, grasses and a couple of self seeding sycamore & alder trees. The north bank looks absolutely brilliant now - and we are all thinking very hard about what to do with this space next.
Then they planted up the herb seedlings into trays ready for a few weeks nurturing - before transplanting into the edible garden & green. Today they sowed chives, parsley, mint & some peas (earlies).
We were so very lucky with the brilliant sunshine - that we did a bit more than was intended - but all felt full of the joys of spring afterwards. Thank you to everyone who turned out today - together we are all making Leabank Square a more loving place to live in!

I just took a look up at the top of the stairs, and I agree that you guys made a huge difference to the garden. I can't wait for the weather to warm up more and enjoy all your hard work. Thank you.

I think it puts leabank in a positive lite for the olympics people across the river. Very nice and neat.
