This week we welcomed a new group of home educated children and their parents to space2grow for the first of regular monthly sessions learning in the garden.

Work continued this week on clearing the area behind the pond with some unusual discoveries of some old carpet and a rusty metal trailer frame! For other volunteers some general weeding and pruning was their activity of choice.
