Breathing Spaces in February
“Where would we be without flowers and trees, they lift the soul.” Dorothy.
We agree whole-heartedly with Dorothy, but it is February and it can seem a bit bleak and bare outside. Certainly our ‘farm’ flowers are nowhere in sight, especially because we don’t use any additional heat in the polytunnel to force them into blooming this early.
Fairtrade Fortnight
Fairtrade Fortnight runs from 22nd Feb to 7th March.
The Fairtrade Foundation need your help to put farmers’ voices at the heart of tackling the climate crisis and share the reality of their struggles.
Wildflower Trail
Green Tides has secured National Lottery funding to help develop a website (now under development) which will showcase all the local wonderful wildflower sites.
The aim is to encourage more and more people to get out there and enjoy our local greenspaces and even have a go at growing some wildflowers themselves!
Transition Greenspaces – January Update
Things have slowed down considerably in our community gardens during January, principally due to lockdown and not being quite sure what was permitted, so we decided to go with 1:1's working to all the usual guidelines.
Rampion 2 Launches Public Consultation
There are plans to expand the Rampion Wind Farm as part of the Government's targets to quadruple the UK’s offshore wind capacity by the end of the decade.
Transition Greenspaces – December Update

What a strange summer we are having - tadpoles in the pond in July and the Rowan full of berries, drought and very slow growth in June and everything's gone mad in the past 2 weeks since it got wetter - some things putting on a couple of feet in less than a week!! All part of the new "normal" I guess....
Big thanks to Tracey, Kay, Jay, Emma, Michael and Sally for coming to help Alan and I knock it all back into shape. ... See MoreSee Less
