Well, the
2021 Open Garden is well and over and it was the hardest one we have put on.
Both Judy
and I worked ourselves really hard both in getting ready and the after cleaning
up.
Even two
weeks after we are still feeling worn out.
WE had 520
visitors through the gate, yes, I know that sound good but it was a disappointment
for us as we usually get around the 800 marks
We thought
this year would be special as so many events had been cancelled and we had good
publicity from our local paper and 4BC radio station, but it did not turn out
that way and we are left wondering why.
2022 will
be our 20th opening and probably our last, it takes a toll out of
both of us and we have to rely heavily on friends to help, so we will just see
how it goes.
Judy will
not stop her propagation of garden plants and people who wish to buy can make
an appointment through my Facebook page ‘The Giving Garden’.
We had the
most amazing rain last month (November) and everything is growing like crazy.
