All hail the wassail! We sung, decorated the orchard trees with bread soaked in cider made at the garden from last years apples. Good crop guarantee 🍏🍏 Thanks to the @tatterjacks who faced very challenging conditions 🌧️🥶 but led us with poems and songs, music + dance. Thanks to everyone who came out today, happy new year! #wassail #streatham #communitygardens #communitygardening

Happy New Year! Join us this Sunday 8th Jan in the garden for our AGM and wassail from 12 til 2.30pm. All welcome! The AGM will be in the classroom in the garden from 12. The wassail starts at 1.30pm from the main entrance to the garden, and is a version of a traditional blessing of the orchard, waking up the cider apple trees and scaring off the evil spirits to ensure a good harvest of fruit 🍏🍏Lots of fun for all ages, join the Brixton Tatterjacks @tatterjacks who will be leading us with music and dance, a great way to shake off any festive cobwebs + learn some new moves #dance #music

Last of this year's wreath making workshops, great to have returning visitors from the last few years, and to see the wreaths in their final homes 👍🏽

Thanks to all those who chose to make their wreaths with us or by kit this year, all proceeds go towards supporting the work of the garden so much appreciated 🙏

Our volunteer sessions are closed for the year now but we will be open as part of the @sccoopstreatham Rookery Christmas Fair on Sunday 18th December from 11am. Lots of amazing food, stalls and experiences, come along! #supportlocal #supportstreatham

We'll have hot drinks, cakes, plants and pre-made Christmas wreaths for sale, you can see some in today's photos.

Back on Sunday 8th January for our AGM from 12, and wassail with the brilliant Brixton Tatterjacks getting us all moving after Christmas from 1pm - 2pm
