We were so saddened to hear the terrible news of the death of Keane Wallis-Bennett at Liberton High School this morning. Our thoughts are with all the staff and pupils, and especially with her friends and family.
Liberton High School are having a fundraising fair on Sunday 23 March where the Eco group will have a stall to sell herbs and plants and we're going to team up with them to raise some funds for the forest garden project. Our bed at the school allotment is looking great and has yielded some very tasty rocket, lamb's lettuce and beetroot tops, and there are still lovely curly kale, parsley, lots of rocket, lamb's lettuce and Swiss chard ready to pick, and purple sprouting broccoli is starting to flower. Some of the fruit shrub cuttings look like they've made it, so it all looks pretty good. Today we harvested the parsnips (some were enormous!) and sowed lettuce, spinach, broad beans, and radishes. |
