Alleyway Garden Update!! ❤️ 6 months on & as you can see the residents of Moss Side are doing a great job! I've volunteered to mentor the community for another 6 months & am really looking forward to what we might achieve! Imagine if we had more spaces like this! #gardening

We're loving these City of Trees tree planting sessions!

Get your gloves on and pop down if you've time on Wednesday 🌳

Have some time to spare on Wednesday for a really worthwhile cause? 👇

This year, I'll be shining a spotlight on urban community gardening. However, I think it's really important to make people aware of some of the challenges before they get started making their own spaces like this. I knew I had to transition my RHS Show Garden into a real garden

We produce a range of practical outdoor items including picnic benches and outdoor seating, planters, raised bedding, trellises, fencing and more. Perfect for the garden, the school playground or public spaces.

Spend the day with me. Last October, I had the privilege of presenting the awards for North West In Bloom. There were a lot of awards, it took almost 3 hours but it was a joy to meet & congratulate so many community leaders who won awards for their gardens. #GardeningTwitter

Delighted to present the award to the hospice.
Well done Michelle and all the volunteers who keep the gardens looking beautiful. 🌺

Better late than never...

Springhill Hospice gained a L5 Outstanding at this year's RHS Community Gardening awards ceremony. As they couldn't be there on the day, we've been looking after it for them before presenting it to Chief Executive, Sam Wells, and Head Gardener, Michelle Hurst.
