National Gardening Week

Its National Gardening week Monday 29 April – Sunday 5 May 2019 here is how to get involved.
Thinking of an event you could organise to celebrate National Gardening Week.
Here is a few ideas.
National Gardening Week is the nation’s biggest celebration of gardening and raises awareness of the difference that gardens and gardening can make to the lives of everyone in the UK. It inspires more people, particularly the next generation of gardeners, to experience the joy of growing and visiting beautiful green spaces. Edible Britain is helping to highlight that everyone has space to grow something delicious to eat, whether it’s a single pot of herbs on the windowsill or an allotment overflowing with courgettes and potatoes.
Open up your garden, venue, allotment or vegetable plot to the public. Transform or clean-up an unused area in your neighbourhood and turn it into a community garden or allotment (with permission). Hold a fundraising event to raise money for a local community garden or project that’s already established, and do cooking demonstrations or sell lots of fresh fruit and vegetables. Give out recipe cards, activity sheets or gardening factsheets locally to give people ideas to grow food. Have a bake sale using ingredients such as, carrots, beetroot and edible flowers (full details available from the RHS website with a link below).Organise a plant sale and share edible plants that people can take away and grow at home or in their community .
