Things are growing

If you haven't been to the garden for a while, you're in for a treat.

Not only are the flowers settling in nicely thank you very much, but the shed and the gazebo are up. More and more people are coming in, helping or just being plain curious and having a look.

Morrisons, the repairs contractor for the estate, have kindly donated lots of new tools, including smaller children's tools (very cute they are too!).

But above all we are growing as a community. More and more people are starting to discover that they actually have friends as well as neighbours. With this in mind, we have a few events coming up over the summer and everyone is welcome. All the events are in the garden.

Monday 21^st June 7pm: Social meeting. Come and have a drink and relax after work. There will also be some feedback from about fund-raising.

Sunday 18th July: Big Lunch. Have lunch with your neighbours. Bring along a dish (maybe a national dish from your country if you like) and share it with everyone else. This is part of The Eden Project's Big Lunch Event.

Monday 19^th July 7pm: Garden meeting to discuss the remaining spending from the Cleaner, Greener, Safer fund.

Monday 16^th August 7pm: Social meeting. Come and have a drink and relax after work.

Saturday 21st Aug: Estate funday. This is an annual event on the estate. We will be having a barbecue in the garden with fresh food from the garden and demonstrations on healthy cooking. There won't be a frozen hamburger in sight. And yes, you will be able to taste everything too.

Monday 20^th Sept 7pm: Garden meeting.

Hopefully you will be able to come to some of the events during the summer. We are also talking to Camberwell Library to see if they can do some events for children...watch this space.
