Graeme Murray has made a glorious aerial video of Starbank Park. It’s at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSmhBk6kZYo and is certainly worth a look. Graeme has posted videos of other local flights on You Tube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8qeoZZu0SiAiS5iC5uC52A. The video of sunset at Newhaven Harbour is terrific.
There’s a gardening session on the 3rd, 10-11.30. Lavender pruning is the main task, not weeding! Please come along if you can.
A glorious autumn morning in the park. We planted bulbs, organised the compost, weeded, pruned and enjoyed the weather. We even found a rather fat frog!
There’s a gardening session on Wednesday, usual time. Forecast is fine and there’s lots to do, not just weeding!
There’s a gardening session on Saturday, usual time, 10-11.30. Please come along to help if you can.
After the huge efforts from the TCV team yesterday, this morning we finished planting the daffodils and geraniums down the bank. It was hard going but an infusion of Australian youth helped dig lots of holes for bulbs and plants in rough ground. Many thanks, Michael. Park is looking good this autumn with lots of colour still. Not to mention the odd tayberry, too.
TCV (The Conservation Volunteers) brought a team to Starbank Park on Tuesday. They did a super job clearing the giant weeds beside the walls on the slope. They planted lots of daffodils and geraniums in the cleared areas. Many thanks to Tim Lewis and his team.
