We had a good turn-out on a fine warm morning yesterday. Lots done, including preparing for more herbaceous planting, loads of weeding and some general trimming and tidying.

Gardening is on Saturday, usual time. There’s plenty to do, especially weeding! The forecast looks reasonable after a miserable early morning so please come along if you can. The eider duck was just outside Newhaven Harbour, both pictures were taken yesterday evening.

Grass cut at the park – what a difference!
Thanks Julie!

Lovely morning for the volunteers @StarbankPark
A really busy morning weeding and tidying. The weeds are right in the middle of their annual spring spurt but they took a bashing this morning and the Friends will prevail!

Not a big turnout today but we still did lots of weeding and tidying plus some planting in the nature trail. There’s still lots of colour but the park is suffering from the drought.
