Gardening on Wednesday is at the usual time, 10-11.30. There’s lots to do and elevenses to finish with. The Met Office forecasts light rain but they are often wrong these days! Please come along if you can to help keep the park beautiful.
Gardening on Saturday is at the usual time, 10-11.30. There is a lot to do and elevenses to finish. The forecast is damp but, even if the Met Office happens to be right, there’s always elevenses to start with!
I think we’ve broken the back of leaf-clearing from the grass at the park this year. Not much fun but at least there will be plenty good compost next year!
Gardening on Wednesday is at the usual time, lots to do and a dry but chilly forecast. There’s plenty to do to keep us warm and elevenses to finish, so please come along (well wrapped up!) to help us keep the park beautiful.
Joyce Kay and Jean Gilmour presented this lovely painting of Starbank Park by Carola Gordon to the Friends of Starbank Park on Wednesday. They had commissioned it as a thank you to Laverock House Nursing Home for caring for their Aunt, Beatrice Bain, who had loved Starbank Park. Sadly, the Home closed in September and the painting was given to the Friends as a thank you for restoring and maintaining the park.
We cleared up vast quantities of leaves yesterday morning. They looked lovely on the trees and they make great leaf mould but the journey between tree and compost heap is a bit of a bind!
Park volunteers, come and play Lego on Saturday 30th November, 10-11:30, in the Bothy. It’s a fun way to enjoy the park. https://facebook.com/events/654339501761306/?ti=
Ideal for children from 5 to 105! Lego is not just for children but helps with problem solving and dexterity. Lego supplied but bring your own too. There will be drinks too!

I was a bit surprised yesterday morning by the very active wasp in the second picture – it seemed far too cold for it to be about.
