Walled Garden January 2025
More prep work in the garden, and lots of indoor jobs.
More snow and cold winds. However, no frosts recorded in the greenhouses.
A dedicated team of 12 volunteers prepared the ground for a tree nursery and planted fifty saplings.
Unseasonably warm at start of month, then the snow arrived, along with Storm Bert!
Our Saturday Conservation task volunteers started clearing the overgrown area between the Walled Garden’s inner and outer walls to turn it into a tree nursery.
