Happy New Year from All of Us at Grow Give Live!
December was a lovely month for us. We participated in the St. Peter and St. Paul Christmas tree festival and enjoyed a festive breakfast at the charming Duck and Willow Café. Although it was a quiet month for growing, we stayed busy by clearing and preparing more space on the allotment plot. We also finally set up our potting shed, which will allow us to start our seedlings earlier and provide a cozy, sheltered space to work in.
Winter is an excellent time for reflection and planning. Looking back at 2024, we had a lot of fun and success with our growing projects. Our station and community centre planters thrived, we supported a Duke of Edinburgh volunteer in completing their volunteer hours, grew fruit and vegetables with the Cubs, and established our weekly allotment sessions.
As we look ahead to this year, we hope to involve more people in our allotment sessions and continue sharing our produce with the community in as many ways as possible. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us over the past 12 months through plant donations, raffle prizes, buying raffle tickets, and joining us at all the Grow Give Live events. Thank you all very much!
