Stress at the park! We’d weeded and tidied and weeded again. Jen and Ritchie brought a gazebo (despite the wind!) and food. The Green Flag judges came and inspected. Fingers crossed!
On tenterhooks!

Even more weeding today
Huge thanks to Jen Johnstone for many hours of weeding in the park today. The park is looking great as a result.
Gardening Sessions: Friday 9th and Saturday 10th May: 10.00-11.30
With the Green Flag inspection getting ever nearer, we’re having two more gardening sessions this week. Please come along if you can.
New herbaceous borders!
It was a damp morning but that didn’t stop us planting out four new herbaceous borders. Many thanks to Edinburgh Council for the plants and Jen Johnstone for all the organisation, planning and help.
And a ladybird braved the rain!
Extra session washed out, will it be better tomorrow?
It’s bucketing here and this morning’s extra session was washed out. Hope it’s better for tomorrow’s Wednesday session at 10.00. Please come along if you can.
Gardening Sessions, 5th and 6th May
Escape from the Election, come to our Gardening Sessions on Tuesday 5th and Wednesday 6th May, 10-11.30.
We’re having an extra gardening session on Tuesday, as well as the usual Wednesday session. We want the park to look at its best for the Green Flag inspection; please come along if you can.
Extra Time
A productive extra morning at the park with path edges, gutters and quite a lot of weeds cleared. I could show some lovely photos of paths and gutters but these are even prettier!
Cold, Wet and Windy
Weather was a bit miserable this morning but we’re a hardy bunch. The Green Flag inspection is looming and the weeds are thriving but we’re getting there.
Gardening session, Wednesday 29th April, 10.00-11.30
Forecast is fair and there’s lots to do. Please come along if you can.
