Seeds Sown For Community Garden
People
living near a patch of unused land are being urged to get together to
make a community garden.
A
meeting is being held this weekend to discuss the organic venture on
land near St Lawrence’s Church.
Residents
who want to discuss the project, which has the backing of Coventry
City Council can find out more on Saturday 15 April at 6pm in St
Lawrence’s church hall.
The
group behind the scheme, Foleshill Organic Community Garden, are
planning to convert part of the one acre site for organic produce.
Another
sections will be transformed into a natural area with wildflowers, a
pond and trees.
John
Walker, chair of the community group, said:
“We
hope lots of people will come along to the meeting and join the
group.
We
are at the very beginning of an exciting scheme where we can share
our time and skills in creating a garden which can be both
productive and beautiful.”
