From Small Seeds
Children from St George's Nursery School in New Mills have been seeing for themselves how some of the fruit and vegetables they enjoy are grown when they visited our Ollersett Avenue allotment site.
The children had been learning about soil and sowing seeds in school, so it was a great opportunity for them to understand what happens when the seeds start growing.
Two allotment society members were on site at the time and were able to show the children how to plant out seedlings and the range of vegetables growing on their plots.
