Members of Chapelhay Community Playgarden have been busy this month
planting a herb garden which the whole community can use. Local children
have planted parsley, thyme, mint, coriander and much more. Members also
brought along salsa, salads and herby dumplings on the first Sunday of
the month to show how the herbs can be used. Chair Clare Sutton said:
“the idea is that if you want a bit of parsley or mint to go with your
dinner you can just pop down and help yourself”.
Another member, Shamus Herron, has emblazonned the back wall with
“Chapelhay”, painted in a graffitti-style. Local PACT Chairman Mark Ford
said: “It looks truly outstanding, and hopefully it all helps to show
that we care about this little patch of Chapelhay and so inspires others
to care for it to.”
The group will be holding their next Work Day on Sunday June 4th
11.30-12.30. Everyone is welcome and there will be some gardening
activities for children to join in. For further details contact Clare on
771180.”
