A ten-strong group of volunteers from Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park were this morning working with local volunteers preparing the Sensory Garden for turfing. Filming of the Beechgrove Garden has commenced, so if you’d like to come along and take part, we’re at the Walled Garden today, Thursday and Friday from 9am.

On the eve of the Beechgrove Garden team arriving in Ardentinny, late morning saw the Walled Garden volunteers unloading a small mountain of turf as well as a beautiful range of plants, shrubs and trees which will grace the Sensory Garden.
Construction of the natural stone Wishing Well is underway (courtesy of Stephen Johnstone and Ian Kerr) and the sensory beds are being prepared for the filming on Thursday and Friday.
Volunteers are welcome to take part in the programme, so do come along to Glenfinart Walled Garden on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday from 9am.
Monday was another busy day for the Glenfinart Walled Garden volunteers, with the completion of most of the paths (20 tons of hoggin moved from outside the Bowling Club!), spreading of top soil and compost as well as construction of the wishing well. Tuesday sees the arrival of the turf to cover the tump and a variety of plants for planting later in the week.
Tuesday’s weather in the garden will be sunny with the odd light shower, so bring along the family to get involved with this great community effort. We’re here from 9am!
