Over the past two months the nursery children, parents and staff have been hard at work volunteering their time to get the nursery allotment ready for the summer growing season.

The soil has been turned over and prepped, the pond cleared and refilled, the shed and decking re-coated with protective paint and the crops planted.

The preschool children will soon begin heading over in groups to visit the allotment and learn all about growing, planting and towards the end of the summer harvesting what the setting has grown.

If you fancy spending some time over the allotment with your children let us know and we can arrange a time and the keys.
