Our RHS award & our very own film for you to enjoy...

Our RHS award - Thriving!

We have been busy at the garden, watering, weeding, sowing, harvesting and dealing with our hut project. Our hard work was recognised by the Royal Society of Horticulture (RHS) and we finally received our certificate, which got laminated and is hanging inside our black metal shed. 

Another exciting bit of news is that the movie my Michelle Golder, talking about the garden is now publicly available here: https://vimeo.com/291065226. We had a filming party over a year ago and this is the fruit. Enjoy! The film also tells you more about our coordinator, Charlotte and why she is so passionate about permaculture and the environment - it runs in her genes....

We do love a party and we were happy to share our garden with our partner Transition Cambridge in late July. The party had a life of its own and it continued among ourselves well past the appointed time, until 10.30pm! There was food, there were people (50!), there was singing by the fire. Here are pictures of the party during day hours.... We also participated to the Vegetable Festival, in our own way... see at the brilliant veggie creatures below...

















The creatures... doesn't the snake look like a Monster Inc's villain?
