Henhayes Play Area
We started on this bed in March 2023. It had previously been cultivated but got neglected over the years, so we decided to give it some TLC and make it look gorgeous again.
April 2023 Collecting plants from a volunteer's garden in the rain, then, planting them at Henhayes the next day in glorious sunshine.

Smaller Areas
Planting the Broadshard Planter and reaping the reward
Rose Lane - Can you believe it, this was November 2023 - the weather was so mild the blooms kept blooming
March 2023 - a bit of fun! Trying to brighten up an otherwise forgotten corner.
A small area near the entrance to Redgate Park - very shady and dry. Quite a challenge, but looking good July 2023
Added to our repertoire in 2022, Pullmans Lane is beginning to be a real bright spot - this taken July 2023
Not one of Crewkerne in Bloom's areas, but Foxditch Lane is worth a mention as it is made so beautiful each year by local residents.
Getting our signature bikes painted up and ready to receive glorious blooms
Beautiful poppies, sweet peas and clematis next to the loos!

The Potager
(aka veg patch!)
June 2023 - a great hoard from the potager which will be donated to the Community Church Food Bank
The idea behind the potager is for everyone to be able to help themselves to bits of veggies - so please get stuck in, just remember to leave some for others!
