Garden Club grows again

After the unfortunate hiatus in 2020, where Garden Club was fenced off and COVID-19 protocols forced our first break from running the Pearson resident's gardening program - we resumed in 2021 and the resident gardens are thriving once again.

Thankfully the gardens only had a single year of wild growth - not long enough for the blackberries to take over, but certainly long enough for some strange and giant brassicas to have emerged! The below kale plant was planted in 2019 but then skipped going to seed in 2020 for reasons only known to itself. It carried on growing arms and legs through the pandemic, and here in March it is taking up an area of about 6 x 6 feet!!
