A very successful two days at Mill Dam Park. Should look good in a fortnight!
Tuesday saw an active group of seven people spreading the two tons of compost over the impoverish beds in the park followed by planting out bedding plants and watering, using the Mill Dam Headrace.
Wednesday a different team set to and planted out more bedding plants into the prepared soil . Already over 200 plants have now been put in with another five hundred still to go.
In all some twenty people have now done something towards adding flowering plants and pottery to the park.
Plants are being put in most weekday evenings between 4 and 6 pm : "Come and choose your corner and the flowers to plant out !" Next session Friday!
With the increased interest in the Pottery making in the Park at Gill Banks, potter Geoff Dellow has been preparing a record quantity of rolled out clay for the event. New easy to assemble tables have also been purchased and experienced pottery workers will give plenty of help to anyone wanting the opportunity to leave their mark for posterity (or until someone takes it into their head to have a smashing time) in the form of art work on the railings at Gill Banks as two hundred yards of pottery art work becomes a realistic target!
