The new fence (Part 4 - 23 February 2012)

Well, here we are nearing the end of the fence build. It's amazing what a keen group of volunteers can achieve in a couple of hours a week. Only a few more panels need to be fixed into place.

Numbers where up again this week and Sefton Green Gym welcomed Norma from the "A Better Crosby" community group. In addition to the fence, work continued on the clearing of the previously overgrown patch and on preparing the raised beds for the upcoming planting sessions. And to top it all, it looks like Spring is about to burst into life after a normal Winter considering the past couple of years.

The first daffodil

The ground beneath the previously overgrown section was littered with all sorts of bags of rubbish buried beneath the top soil. An old bike was uncovered!! If all goes to plan a well known bank will come along with its team of volunteers and a rotavator to properly prepare the ground once the rubbish is cleared.

And finally this week, further signs that Spring is closer - a female frog was onsite checking out the pond
