Community gardening next weekend – get involved! 🌱

Join us and the Streetworks team on Saturday 15th at 11am to garden the circular bed on the corner of Harpenden Road and Norwood Road. The bed needs weeding, some digging over and some new plants added where some less scrupulous passers by have dug up and taken some of the shrubs we planted there a few months ago.

Local volunteers, Councillor Anna Birley and members of Streetworks and the Norwood Forum planting the bed in May.

We will be bringing some tools, plants and soil – but if you have bulbs or plants you would like to contribute or your own tools to use please do feel free to bring them along.

New allotment on Guernsey Grove!

Residents on Guernsey Grove wanted more space for growing and suggested to councillors that we help organise a community gardening space at the estate on the corner with Croxted Road.

We’re really pleased to see that, following conversations with Lambeth Housing, new raised beds have been installed! We’re looking forward to seeing these planted up and full of fruit and vegetables (and will happily lend a hand with our forks and trowels!)
