🌿 Unveiling the Story of Hargrave Hall Community Centre: The Rear Garden🌿 🏡 The exterior of Hargrave Hall was once an overlooked space, shrouded in neglect and devoid of love. With a large, dull grey paved area and an unloved and unused rear, its potential lay dormant, waiting to be awakened by caring hands and eager hearts. 🌻 Over the past three years, driven by a shared passion for gardening and community, we've embarked on a journey to breathe new life into this forgotten land. ✨ We started in our rear garden by making it safe. Our small but dedicated group of volunteers cleared away rubble, removed broken equipment and old footings from a previous user, and levelled the ground. We then laid a new lawn, and what a difference it made! 🌱 But this is just the start; our journey extends beyond mere landscaping. Yes, we want to add life and improve our little nook of Archway for all the multitude of environmental benefits. However, we’re hoping to cultivate more than just plants; our goal is to foster connections, share knowledge, and nurture a love for nature, as well as develop a sense of belonging and camaraderie. 🌿 Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, there's a place for you in our growing community. Come join us as we dig, plant, and grow together. Let's continue to write the next chapter of Hargrave Hall's story, one bloom at a time. Together, we'll transform this once-unused space into a vibrant sanctuary for all to enjoy. See you in the garden 🌷 #archwaygreenfingers #hargravecommunitygarden #communitytransformation #archwayn19 #communitygarden
