‘Adopt a Bed’
Have you ever thought about adopting a bed? If not
read on!
Each week we have been asking for help at our weekly
Churchyard Gardening Group. Well, perhaps you
cannot help on a Friday morning, so you just dismiss
the thought! But, now, you can think again!
What about adopting a piece of the churchyard which
you will tend, weed etc. when you are able to? This is
already in action in the bed to the left of the path to
the Church (which is full of lovely colour at present).
This could be perhaps just weeding around the outside
of the church hall, where weeds keep trying to change
into trees! Or the strip along the entrance to our Hall
carpark, or just a small area of the actual graveyard,
say 3 or 4 of the older graves… the list is endless.
So, if you would be interested in helping in this way,
just have a quiet word with Sharon and with her, you
can choose your patch! With many thanks.
