Garden News November 2021

 

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.
