Garden Explorations, Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens


Jim Jam joined Lewis Ginter's absolutely sweet children's garden artist for her new Explorations programme. The only child 'mine age' she noted with sadness, before a magical one-to-one of story-time under a tree, authorised water butt usage and some gentle sponge sprinkling... then some compost bin excavation, bio-degradable plant pot construction and the planting a precious nasturtium seed.

Careful avoidance of high salicylate options meant we sampled some tiny celery thing and some impressive carrots. Ours are not ready for the harvest yet.
