Taking Root Activities
Our community garden and green corridor days are on hold for now – we’ll be back as soon as it’s safe.
Spring is usually a time for sowing and growing, mowing and more sowing. With the worldwide lockdowns in place, many things have been cancelled or postponed so we have chatted, emailed, zoomed and skyped (trust me, for some of us, that’s a steep learning curve!) a plan B.
There may be a plan C or D to come, depending on how things work out, but we’re on it. You may not see us – even at two metres apart – just yet, but we’re working on preparing for the sprint when we’re allowed to do so.
Keep in touch by following our Taking Root in Bootle Facebook page and we hope to be back gardening very soon.
We hope you are all staying safe and well in the meantime.
