Over 80 plants were given out during Great Big Green Week! All the groups who took part and helped to organise the events went away with a bit of green inspiration.
Whether you are an avid gardener or a beginner, there was something for everyone. Lots of people without gardens took a plant home for their windowsill, because sometimes that is all it takes to spark green fingers! 🌻✨
