2024 was another fun and busy year at Our Community Garden. So to celebrate, we went out together to celebrate just before Christmas. We went to a local pub, The Boatman on Chesterton Road, where we had a two course dinner and drinks.
It was lovely to invite some of the volunteers and colleagues who have worked with us over the year.
Everyone had a great time celebrating another successful year and we discussed our plans for 2025.
We will be holding our AGM soon where we will discuss what went well (and not so well) in 2024 and some exciting plans for the new year. Watch this space.
