On Sunday, we are celebrating Autumn’s bounty and planting in hope for a beautiful Springtime display.
Bring along your garden and windfall apples for juicing and collect some daffodil bulbs for planting around the Park, including the approaches along Kelcliffe Lane, Oxford Avenue, Greenshaw.
Apples juicing is a good way to ensure that apples are put to good use, and not wasted. They need to be in a reasonable condition, ie not rotting, and it would be helpful if you can wash them before you bring them. They are cut up and crushed for juice that lasts 3 – 4 days if left in a fridge, longer if frozen. (Bring a bottle/jug to put it in.) We are supported in this by Urban Harvest.
The Daffodil bulbs have been donated to the Park by land management company Meadfleet. We will give you a small bag of bulbs to plant before mid November around the Park – just let us know where, so we can put it on the Park records. Or, bring a trowel and do it Sunday afternoon.
Afterwards you could walk across to Nunroyd Park, where the Friends are holding a Halloween Event from 5-7pm, with a trail, wand making and spooky stories.
Please note – the Park can get muddy, so please wear suitable clothing. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
