SNAPSHOT: A great day out at our Pop Up Garden

In keeping with the spirit of the Tour de France, we set up a mini 'Pop-Up' garden in Woodgrange Marketplace on 7 July 2014, which was a huge success and great fun to boot. A great tribute to everyone who helped organise the event, took park or got swept away with the excitement of the day.

Thanks to a small grant from London Borough of Newham (LBN), we gave out plants for fostering, spray-painted bicycle wheels, offered advice from our 'Plant Doctor', signed up 22 new paid-up Members, made up containers with plants donated by Homebase and talked to anyone who would listen about plans and visions for the Forest Gate Community Garden.
