Not as instant or as easy as a Xmas lights switch on!
GoodGym and Welcare Kingston will have to be a little more patient to see the fruits of their labour!
On the shortest day of the year Winter Soltice and a suitably cold night, 4 Goodgymers of Dave, Claire, Anita and Jane with extra hubbie power from Simon and help from Aruna from Welcare planted we reckon 100 bulbs a head (a head torch head!)
We can’t wait for hopefully a spring switch-on - of a medley of snowdrops, daffs, tulips and alliums! For the families of Welcare to enjoy in this invaluable community garden.
Welcare’s presence in Kingston has been and remains a vital building block that has helped many parents develop lifelong supportive friendships. WelCare’s services empower parents.
This bulb planting project was thanks to MPLG and Taylor’s bulbs competition where Goodgym and Welcare won an allocation of bulbs for the community.
