Last month we donated a range of plants, seeds, seed potatoes and compost to our five local cluster primary schools.
Operations Director, Katie said “We are passionate about inspiring the next generation of gardeners. We love to collaborate with local schools and help with projects whenever possible.
“Each school received £100 worth of gardening goodies which will set them up for growing success this season. Matthew and Mike had an enjoyable morning out in the van delivering the goods and meeting the children at each school.”
Retail and Events Manager, Matthew added “It was great fun delivering a bundle of plants and gardening materials to our local primary schools. All the pupils were so excited about the opportunity to grow their own plants and vegetables at school. Gardening is a great activity to get children outdoors, to enjoy the fresh air whilst learning about growing plants and where their food comes from.”
Head Teacher of Clyro CiW Primary School, Sarah Groves commented “It is a great and important project to be involved in, teaching children the importance of growing their own food from the seed to the table. Our children love sowing seeds and seeing the plants grow and progress. We are incredibly grateful to the Old Railway Line for their wonderful school bundles and their help.”
