This week’s gardening adventure featured an impressive range of activities: watering plants 💦🌱, sweeping pathways 🧹, replanting greenery 🌿, and the ever-important task of identifying exactly what was growing in the food park 🔍🍓.

A special shout-out to Hazel, who proved herself invaluable by correctly identifying the strawberry plant 🍓👏 (saving us all from a potentially embarrassing case of mistaken identity 😅) while also lending a hand with just about every task going.

After the hard work was done, the team gathered for some well-earned refreshments ☕🍪. Pauline treated us to a fascinating overview of the building’s history 🏛️, the story of the local area 🗺️, and the exciting long-term vision for the site 🚀. It was one of those talks that starts with “just a bit of history” and ends with everyone realising they’ve learned far more than expected 🤓✨.

As always, it was an informative, friendly, and thoroughly enjoyable session with What If 😊🌻. The Tuesday gardening sessions will continue throughout the summer ☀️, and the plants have made their position very clear: they need you there! 🌱🙌
