The Dragon's Head Blog: May the 4th Be with You! Spring Gardening Day in Colchester, England

At our Colchester Centre on May 4th, members came together from four different branches for our first gardening day of the year.

It was a very productive day as we tidied and pruned, weeded and cut back, planted up pots with young bedding plants, planted lettuce and sunflower seeds, and prepared a tomato bed.

A separate team primed and painted our newly acquired storage containers.

During the day we held a plant sale where many new and delicate plants were donated and sold, raising money for the international projects fund.

And, of course, our winter-dishevelled dragon metamorphosed into a fine and handsome dragon once more.

The whole garden was transformed into a wonderful and magical place.  Thanks to all the efforts of our dedicated team of volunteers.
