Froglife visit Two Trees Community Garden, Tavistock Down to build three bog gardens!

Froglife visit Two Trees Community Garden, Tavistock Down and made 3 bog gardens on 13th May 2024 with Growing Hollingdean volunteers

Built on 13 May 2024 with volunteer help

Two Trees Community Garden on Tavistock Down already had an old bath in the garden. Will from Froglife, Mel and Growing Hollingdean volunteers levelled the bath then scooped out the water, full of life, and put it to one side.

They lined the bath with a pond liner and hessian, added lots of large gravel and then top soil on top before planting the bog plants. Finally they replaced the water, teeming with wildlife, back into the bath. All the equipment, materials and additional ‘know how’ supplied by Froglife. Thank you so much to Will and the team.

If you would like join Mel for gardening at Two Tree Community Garden, her on 07543201670 or tdcommunitygarden@gmail.com or see the Facebook page.
