BRACE horticulture group have so far agreed to meet each Tuesday behind the institute from 10 am. We are open and inclusive to anyone who wants to join and we are developing our ideas about the purposes of the garden, who its beneficiaries are and to firm up a design. We have so far decided to build 6 main crop raised beds, each will be 1.2m wide and approx 4m long. We are planning a 6 course rotation as the central activity for the space, with wild flower areas around the edges and propagation areas for perennial plants, esp those suitable for forest gardening and extending and filling Cae Bodfach.

Meanwhile at Busoga High School, Kamuli. Here is one we made earlier
Class rooms overlooking the Busoga forest garden 
Connie Kauma and her school team have kept on supporting and extending the forwst garden we designed and planted together on the 2017 PDC at Kamuli. Fantastic to see how the garden has matured already. I hope this will inspire our team here in Llanfyllin to do something here that makes a big impact on the community.
