Hi everyone.
Due to the colder days and the fact that we have gone into quieter times now, we have decided to close the gardens to the public until early Spring 2025. Re-opening date will be announced closer to the time.
Our Tuesday volunteer days 10am-2pm will still be on going forward (any weekly changes will be announced on our Facebook page).
Due to construction work being undertaken during December, unfirtunately there will be no Christmas events at Porlock this year, but we promise to come back much stronger next year!
We have also been looking out for our other wildlife, by using some of our excess apples from the food bank at Bilton Hall Community Centre and created edible bird feeders for bird seeds to hang around the garden. Our 3 students from Epinay School helped us out to create these bird feeders, and last week I hung up about 30 of them all around the garden. One little curious Robin came over to say hello and try out the food as soon as I hung it on the tree..
Happy Winter and stay warm, everyone!
In Comm-Unity,
Lise, Joanna, Paula, Karen, Anissa, Jack and the rest of the Porlock team
