As a next step towards getting Midlothian Council’s agreement for a site for the Roslin Community Garden, we need a plan!
Please join us at the Roslin Park for a planning picnic (bring your own picnic) and we will talk about how our community garden might be laid out and what we might include.
When: Saturday, 11 September 2021 @ 12noon Where: The Roslin Park (map below) Why: Everyone is welcome (including children and dogs!) Why: To make plans for our community garden
IMMEDIATE USE ACTIVITY: Roslin Community garden team – new planters DATE: Summer 2021 VENUE: Main Street, Roslin
Volunteers at Roslin Community Garden had a wonderful Saturday morning setting up the first Community growing planters in Roslin! Check them out (and the lovely signs!) just near the phone box at the corner of Station Rd and Main Rd.
We had cake, music and lots of lovely people stopping by to have a chat and find out more.
Super nice first step, planting out fragrant herbs as well as some salad, kale, and flowering plants. Feel free to have a look and to water them with some H2O 🙂!
We look forward to a nice planning and dreaming session for the next steps in a few weeks!
Interested in getting more involved and sharing some of the vision? Get in touch and jump on board 🙂. Plenty of space for new people, new dreams and community energy!
Francesco Benvenuti and Anne Hyatt, who are co-ordinating the Community Garden, want to see as many people as possible join the group.
“Everybody can get involved in their local outdoor spaces. They are a shared resource and a shared responsibility. From the smallest individual action to a national campaign, every contribution helps! ”
