New growing season officially launched as some of our lovely new Learner Plotters started today 🌱 We had a big response to our project this year and have a waiting list for those who didn't get a plot this year. Exciting to start with a blank canvas of a 1m x 4m plot or raised bed. Todays plotters were measuring, planning + creating plot design for the year ahead. Thinking about what they want to grow and spacings and timings. Watch this space 🥕🥔🍆🍅🌽🌶️🥒🥬🥦 #streathamcommoncommunitygarden #streatham #communitygardens #organicgrowing #organic #learnerplotters #ediblegarden

Birdwatching today in the garden, great to see the nests being used by great tits and a goldcrest (UK's smallest bird) nest has also been spotted.

Many thanks to @veoliauk for seed sowing compost and @mr_organic for sending us tomato seeds for our Learners this year👍🏽🍅#nestingbox #wildlifegarden #communitygardening #communitygardens #Streatham
