What #INCREDIBLE people, businesses and organisations we have in #Ramsbottom 💚 A HUGE thank you to Danny English for picking up and delivering the pallets that were so kindly donated to us (Martin Chepner you are a diamond)! We will be making some #compost bins to go outside our new #community #polytunnel at The Best Western Old Mill Hotel, Ramsbottom.

A few years ago we were given some material to act as a weed suppressant which was very kindly donated by Voith who run the fabrics and paper factory here in Rammy! We had hoped to use it at our Community Wildflower Patch as the post below indicates - it didn't work out at the time but we've finally got the perfect place to make good use of it, the floor of our Incredible Polytunnel! If you've got any free time on Friday morning we'd love your help getting it laid. We'll be in the tunnel at The Best Western Old Mill Hotel, Ramsbottom from 10am 💚We've been working on a banner for our revamped Community Wildflower Patch - Lots more has been added since this photo was taken, our trusty volunteers including those going for The Duke of Edinburgh's Award have been adding their touch :) We plan on getting together very soon to hang this, plant a few bulbs and put down some weed suppressant which has kindly been donated by Voith who run the fabrics and paper factory here in Rammy!
