Easter greetings from the acre! It does seem very strange to be spending Easter in the cabin, with the mercury in the early 70's, whilst all around is the threat of the virus.
We hope everyone is managing the situation as best as can be expected. As we have sadly had to close the project during the crisis, Corin, our project manager and master of all things space2grow is kindly keeping the acre going and is getting an awful lot done.
It is with regret that we must close space2grow with immediate effect and until further notice. I know that this will have a large impact on a number of our volunteers but we all must heed the advice coming out from the government and also the NHS and Public Health England.
The acre provides a haven for many people and its a fine balance in ensuring that mental well being is being supported whilst protecting the most vulnerable from the coronavirus.
We’re flooded! The aftermath of two recent storms; storm Ciara and storm Dennis - and with groundwater levels being above normal for this time of year - the River Wey broke it’s banks and filled the project with water.
We were right down with the worms today as we got knee deep in our compost area! There are a couple of reasons we need to get to know our wiggly friends a little better…
The time of the year to reflect back and the acre has created some very special moments for us all to look back on with shared pride in what we've achieved together as a great team.
Its been another action packed week as the Christmas activities start to pick up speed. Our wonderful Christmas tree is getting lots of praise in St Andrews Church. Our entry is particularly unique..
