Flower Planting Day Sunday 4th December!

Submitted by Aimee on
We are finally going to do some flower planting at Lethlean Lane THIS Sunday 4th December at 10:30 am! 
Hayle in Bloom have very kindly helped us out with providing bulbs for outside the gate and will help plant on the day, and Chris Lello will be rotavating the cemetery extension this week. Huge thanks to Margaret Tanner!
We will have some wildflower and grass seeds to put on the cemetery extension, where we want to build up a wildflower meadow to reduce the weeds and encourage insects on the site. 
WHAT WE NEED:
People to come and help.
Any wildflower seeds you may have collected and saved to put on the cemetery.
Rakes, to rake in the seeds.
I will make some cakes and bring squash, but any other refreshments would be gratefully received.

Allotment BBQ Sunday 18th September 4pm CANCELLED AGAIN!! SORRY!

Submitted by Aimee on

Hello all - here is a plan for the BBQ on Sunday 18th September from 4pm, which will NOT go ahead because the forecast hasn't materialised and it's way too windy to be fun. Sorry everyone. We might need to rethink this - anyone fancy a night in the pub instead?

I will get some burgers and sell them at a small profit to benefit the society. I will bring a BBQ to cook them on.
Please bring something to share - for instance, I will make a ratatouille. If you plan to BBQ something extra to this, you may need to bring your own BBQ.
Please also bring drinks,cutlery, plates, chairs if you will require them.
Look forward to seeing you all then.

Theft of plants from Allotment 2

Submitted by Aimee on

Sadly someone has been on Allotment 2 and dug up some flowering plants which were coming into bud from the troughs they were being grown in. 

It's unbelievable that someone would be so sneaky and criminal for the sake of some plants they could grow themselves if they put the effort in!

Please could everyone try to keep an eye out at the site for people who don't belong there, whilst staying welcoming to visitors! I do hope this doesn't happen again. Sympathy to Jim.
