Gardening Festival


This Saturday I volunteered some of my time to help out with the gardening festival at Farnham Maltings - a fantastic centre for art, crafts and theatre. The festival included talks on flower arranging, garden design, local growing initiatives, a photography exhibition, an allotment competition and an out door exhibition of Falmouth University students work which was commissioned by the National Trust.
I helped out with the children's workshops where they could decorate their own garden lantern and make their own cress pot, which was delightful! I also supervised the schools 'garden in a biscuit tin' competition (ages 4-9), and as you can see from some of the entries below, they definitely used their imaginations!
