🌸 Welly Boot Flower Fun - The Kings Reach, Biggleswade
Time: 10:00 - 12:00
🌸 EVENT DETAILS
As we’re unable to plant many flowers directly into the ground, we’ve come up with a fun recycling idea using children’s welly boots as planters and hanging them along the fence to make the garden bright and colourful.
This will also create a lovely environment for mini beasts and bees.
✨ COST: FREE
The event is free, just be ready to get a little muddy and have some fun!
If you have any spare children’s boots you’d like to donate, we’d be very greatful.
