Gardening club is back! 🌱🌸🐌🐞🐝🪻
Join us at and around the Pippin - the first session is this Saturday 29th April with @katrinawilde and @alicethatchclay

We're going to have a couple of focuses this year in gardening club:
🪴👩‍🌾 The Neighbourhood Planters - ADOPT A PLANTER - would you or someone is your household like to care for one of the metal planters in the neighbourhood? Each planter has a small budget, plus there will be some fantastic prizes for the best cared for planter too 🌸 let me know if you're interested!

🌼❤️‍🩹🎨 Colour and Healing garden - we'll be planting different herbs, flowers, and plants to create natural dyes that we'll use for dyeing and printing textiles to go into the building (🗣️more on this textiles project soon)

🪷🕊️ The Secret Garden as a sanctuary - making this space a calm and peaceful space - and would love to hear your thoughts on what this space needs. Volunteer support in beginning to tidy this up would be much appreciated too 🧡

Pip Co-Director @annafrancisart has been at St Geo

Pip Co-Director @annafrancisart has been at St George’s House, Windsor Castle for a 24 hour event exploring what works in ‘Rebuilding Communities: Social Capital and Neighbourhood Renewal’

St George’s House is reserved as a space for discussion around issues of national and international importance, bringing together people from a variety of backgrounds.

Anna has shared what has worked and what the challenges are for our neighbourhood, and particularly why long term approaches need to be prioritised, with more policy focus needed to enable and support community power.
