Spring is almost here!

Welcome back!
Spring is springing. Our Community Garden -- a work in progress -- is currently graced by quite a few clumps of beautiful daffodils and jonquils.
A grandstand view of the garden. In the foreground, black plastic sheeting keeps the weeds from making a comeback.
The long and the short view of a lovely stand of trees. Some of the saplings will have to go, though, as they're rather too close to the path.Youngsters keep tossing things into the burn so lovingly cleared by the Employability Team last November. For a better view, click on the photos.
A neighbouring tree reaches into a cloudless sky across the lane at the bottom end of the garden.
Almost at the top end, two sentinels guard the footpath:The top end still looks a bit bare but that will change once the drainage has been sorted out.
Water is a feature in various ways. The footbridge across the burn and its low-lying culvert that contributes to flooding when the burn is in spate.

Thank you for visiting!
