Seedlings Winter Workshop

Sunday 27th January 12:30 to 1:30pm

This our first 'Seedlings' workshop of the year for young gardeners aged 4 to 14 years old. During the workshop, to coincide with the RSPB’s ‘Big Garden Birdwatch’ weekend, children will be making pine cone bird seed feeders and bird food garlands. This will be done under parental supervision on our own allotment in Letchworth. Each child will receive a certificate and will get to take home what they have made. There will be no charge but donations towards materials would be well received.

Have a look at the poster then email Kay Walker on workshops@ldga.org.uk to book a place, first come first served.

Children love getting their hands mucky, so gardening can be the perfect activity to do together that will help them learn more about nature whilst having fun.
