We had a great time running workshops with residents in flats showing them what can be grown on them as well as running a growing workshop for children living there. Do you grow on your balcony? We would love to know?

This year we have included some fabulous beetroot seeds in our packs. If you've not grown beetroot before, give it a go, they are fabulous to grow and so rewarding to harvest! Annabel has recorded a video with some top tips - take a look!

Our Strawberries were looking a bit neglected, so we got together on the plot at Human Roots, weeded, split and planted new plants! Who can resist a British strawberry!!
They are irresistible indeed! Nothing quite like strawberries to signal summer. The sunshine today is definitely make us feel like it's not too far away! 🍓

We have been so pleased to hear that the seed bundles for 2026 have been arriving safely and generating excitement to get growing amongst your children and communities. We really hope you are pleased with the mix of seeds available and we can't wait to see your growing pictures, and hear how gardening and growing is benefiting you & your growing groups.
For those who are new here, it would be great if you could introduce yourselves (or re-introduce if you want to 😊) and explain a little about your project or growing plans.
We are about to film some more 'growing videos' for the new seeds in this years pack, (beetroot etc) we will post here to let you know when they are available.
If you have any questions for our horticulturalists - Annabel and Frankie please post them, we will do our best to answer your questions as…

Well what a great start to this half term, the seeds have arrived, Thank you, our children are so excited to get growing, being lucky at our school we garden within our forest school lessons as well a couple of one to one children growing in their own raised beds.
So Thank you again. From Ashton Keynes primary school
It is so exciting that the weather has been a bit better, everyone is raring to get going with the growing here, it's lovely to hear your children feel the same. It is also great that you are able to provide one-to-one gardening opportunities for the children as well as growing and gardening in Forest School. Please do keep us posted on their experiences of growing this year, we'd really love to hear any stories you have to share about the benefits the children find from being outside growing 💚

What a joy to see the sun shining today (hope you all had some sun in your part of the country!). Makes us feel spring is finally on its way and we are excited about the new growing season ahead.
Have you started yet or are you still waiting...
What are you going to be growing first?
Keep updating us on your growing journey, we're all in this together!
Love beetroot, I always try to get some sown late in the season to leave in the greenhouse over winter. As long as I can get them to a decent size before the weather get too cold, they last right through.
