Last weekend, we celebrated Hallowe’en at Starbank Park with a pumpkin trail and face painting for children and hot drinks and treats for everyone. It was lovely to see the park so busy and everyone enjoying Starbank on this Hallowe’en morning.

Of course our group of Saturday morning gardening volunteers were far from idle and continued with the many jobs any garden offers in autumn. Leaves were swept, weeds were weeded and spring bulbs were planted.
