Garstang Hub

Weve been making the most of the allotments on Saturday and Monday with Bacon butties, arts and crafts and lots of mini jobs improving the site with 22 volunteers between the two days.

We held our Great Big Green Bolton Get Together on Saturday and Monday, dishing out smash burgers, sausages while exploring the local wildlife on site. Ladybirds eating aphids, snails, European Honey Bee's, common frog and a Chafer Beetle. It was nice to have 27 join us between the two days enjoying the outdoors and understanding the importance of our local environment.

15 on site yesterday enjoying bacon butties and making site improvements. Cabbage white caterpillars on our hedge mustard, bee's hiding from the rain, red ants milking aphids for honeydew, an abundance of life with the site being a wildlife haven.

25 smash burgers and countless sausages dished out from the BBQ via Reece and Angelica, with roughly 27 on site today. Lovely day, lovely weather, lovely company.

The work continues on site, can you guess what the donation was for our Halloween?

SAFETY MESSAGE

If you are coming to the allotments today please make sure you are wearing appropriate clothing and footwear.

We have red ants that bite and they do not discriminate on body parts. Toes, knees, arms….!

For your own safety please do not come to site or bring your children wearing open toe footwear.

Please also make sure you bring plenty of water as it’s going to be hot.

A massive thank you to Liam for his guidance and work on our new pond. It's been a really nice day being joined by Betty and Angelica and almost a 12 hour day on site for myself.
