BIRTHDAY WISHES.
Birthday wishes to Fiona who celebrated her birthday.
Community Garden.
Dave visited AND gave a talk on Sensory Gardens.
Sensory gardens are outdoor Spaces designed to be both mentally stimulating while bringing a Feeling of calm and relaxation. They are designed to stimulate all of the five senses - sight, sound, touch, taste and smell. The layout is also important as is the texture of the plant. We now have ‘loads’ of soil delivered and the plant boxes are ready for use.
