Community group, Shipley Eco-Action Group (SEAG) was awarded £6,243.00 from the Severn Trent Community Fund to support its Shipley Woodside Community Garden project in Shipley, Derbyshire. The funds will be used to create a large wildlife pond and erect a barn structure. It will also be used to buy a recycled plastic bench seat, a tool shed, a solar powered submersible water pump, and 4 IBCs for ground and rainwater collection.
To celebrate their 1 year anniversary, the group plan to hold a summer fete at the Community Garden on the 29th August 2020 (11 am - 3 pm) - with the appropriate social distancing in place.
The Garden is currently open to visitors and volunteers every Saturday 10 am - 1 pm and every Wednesday 1 pm - 4 pm.
