Our own seed planting and garden trail event was very popular with 21 children attending, aged between 3-11 years. It began with stories about plants and sunflowers in our newly created storytelling corner of the garden, before planting 'Russian Giant' sunflower seeds to grow on at home. There will be a prize in the summer for whoever grows the tallest sunflower.
Parents and children then took part in our garden trail, finding the answers to questions about the folklore of plants that will feature in the garden. Someone also spotted a blue tit who was making a nest in one of the 3 nest boxes in the Silver Birch tree.
We received some lovely comments about the garden and the event. Click on the Comments link in the previous entry to read them.
