Tunstall Community Garden
Grow-iT
Is our village gardening group!
We meet at the Village Hall once a month on a Wednesday evening, to share ideas, tips, plants and seeds.
We also arrange visits to local gardens of interest, and have gardening demonstrations at our monthly sessions.
​
Grow-iT members can also take part in looking after the community garden and the appearance of the village in general - tasks completed have included the planting of 10,000 daffodil bulbs, and clearing weed and debris from the beck!
​
One challenge was to grow the largest fig gourd as pictured below! Competition was fierce!
​
In May we enjoyed a splendid talk and demonstration from David Edwards about Bonsai.
​
Apple Day in September saw us try apple pressing and identifying our apple varieties in the village.
​
In October we had a fantastic trip to the Himalayan Garden with a guided tour of the wonderful Autumn colours.
