Sundays are Fundays at Fern Grove garden.

This past couple of weeks we have seen more more people enjoying the local greens spaces.

This has included Fern grove Garden, who have asked us here at GTDT to go along and share our skills of how to replace the wood on the existing raised beds.

We went along and look at the great start we have had.

See you all next Sunday!
