SPRING 2014

WILD FLOWER PLANTING ON THE RIVER BANK

The Group met on Sunday 30th March - the first fine day for our meet for several months!
Our Group had received several donations of Wild Flower seeds and these were planted on ground which was rapidly drying out in the sun. It seemed like only a few days ago that it was all under water...and now we will need to water the plants every day unless it rains....

Preparing the ground and planting - 
then watering will be needed during the coming drought.....
or maybe not!
