Incredible Edible Runcorn (part of Old Town Bloomers)

Our garden is created with the generosity of our marvellous volunteers, from beautiful signs, to amazing new builds and gorgeous plants! If you have popped in the garden lately, have you spotted our new alpine rockery and plant display (more coming soon!) We love seeing the garden come to life 😍Photos from Old Town Bloomers Including Incredible Edible Runcorn's post

Our latest blog post from the Blooming Old Gardener is live on the blog now - https://www.oldtownbloomers.com/post/have-them-plant-a-garden It's a look back at our recent plant swap, current work in the garden and future plans - do have a read!

First asparagus spear has come up to say hello.

The simple pleasure of chalk - delighted to see the chalk in use, families playing and the sun shining.

Brilliant work from Yasmin and Josh as they create our brilliant new rockery ~ making the most of our wonky walls.

We had a brilliant plant swap yesterday! Thanks so much to everyone that came along, it was so nice to see people. We were a bit concerned when the police turned up, but we needn’t have worried, we were just in receipt of some garden materials ~ generously donated by a local cannabis grower (no plants! Just fertiliser, compost etc). We are planning another plant swap/sale in a few weeks ~ as well as announcing monthly volunteer sessions.

The weather is looking half decent for this Friday (April 16th) - so from 12-2 we will be in the garden - socially distanced with an array of plants that our amazing volunteers have lovingly grown. Including a lot of houseplants! All houseplants are potted up with coir, as we are going peat free! Please bring something to swap, or something to donate if you can (no pressure on that though). Donations are always welcome. We may also have some magical seeds to share too!* If the weather is horrendous, we will try again the following week - so please check our social media posts for latest information. *no actual magic included, unless it's the magic of nature.
