It was great to get back into the park today for our first task day of 2018! As well as planting another 1,000 bulbs (donated by Open Gardens in Marple - who won them from Parker's) we rescued the Poppy Rocks painted by local children during last year's Remembrance period and put them back on display.

For one reason or another I haven't been in the park much recently, but today I walked through and thought it looked beautiful.  Thank you all for all your hard work.

Thank you @Barbara
