DIGGers meet on Wednesday and Thursday lunchtimes - we aim to grow our own fruit and veg and have fun eating it! We also raise money for charity each year through a growing competition and give our primary schools a competition to try and win the "Lewis MacKenzie Trophy" (see bottom of page for a list of winners and fundraisers).

Second Greenhouse Secured
Another cold week with sun, wind, rain, snow and sleet! On Wednesday, Miss Swallow continued weighing out soil ready for the potato competition. It's getting late now so we really must get them planted next week!
On Thursday, Lewis's grand-dad Alistair came in to help assemble the second greenhouse. We washed all the panels and securing strips before putting them into place.
Miss Swallow's drill battery died on the first screw, so we had to use a small screw driver set instead!!
We made a timber frame to attach the base to, then drove some pieces of wood into the ground and secured the frame to it.
Meanwhile at lunchtime, Connorhan and Grigor weighed out more soil for the potato competition. We need 22 bags in all as 22 potatoes have been adopted!!
