Despite this morning's chill, our chickens enjoyed a sunshiny dust bath in their coop.

We were honoured to be @samsriversidew6 guests last week to celebrate their 2nd anniversary. Great fun and absolutely delicious meal, including the 'Phoenix Farm Quince Bramble'.
Congratulations and hope that there are many more ahead. Onwards and upwards!!

Felt really good to have a full Get Out There team back together at Godolphin Gardens after many periods of illness over the last few months. Great to have old and young working together too!
Leaves swept, rockery built, dead hedge and frog hibernaculum built, planters tidied and new plants added around the wildlife pond! The guys worked so hard, they really do love this garden.

A child’s wish for the future, from 1996.
On the 2nd October 2021, despite torrential rain, approximately 150 people turned out for our Time Capsule event at Godolphin Gardens, including some people who were former pupils at Miles Coverdale and St Stephen's primary schools involved in the project 26 years ago when it was conceived. It was supposed to have been opened last year after 25 years, but was delayed due to covid.
The children looked at the past, present and future of the area and then put their wishes for the future into three beautiful pots created by artist Amanda Lebus. Interestingly many of the issues haven't changed...
We are planning to create a new time capsule at Godolphin Gardens in the coming months, working with pupils from St Stephen's and Miles Coverdale Schools.

We had a fantastic day last week at Kew Gardens as part of our bi-weekly Walking for Health programme of autumn/winter walks for Westminster Adult Education Service.
The walks are open to all Westminster residents, it’s a great opportunity to learn more about local history, explore beautiful parks and gardens and meet new people.
Bookings: email us at bookings@hcga.org.uk
We will be leading walks right through to June next year so keep an eye on our events page for updates, link via bio.
The Kew Community Access Scheme is a brilliant way for small organisations to visit with community groups throughout the year.
