Bulb Planting with Friends of Chinbrook Meadows

Friends Of Chinbrook Meadows recently applied for free bulbs that were being offered by Taylors Bulbs of Holbeach in partnership with The Metropolitan Public Gardens Association and have received 3,000 bulbs to enhance Chinbrook Meadows. These include narcissi, snowdrops and grape hyacinth. Glendale are going to plant some for us before Christmas but the rest we would like to plant as a community event on Saturday 5th January, 11am – 12.30pm.  Please come along. We will meet at the pavilion. Bring trowels and bulb planters. Come back later in the year to admire your handiwork in flower.


However with all recent rain the path to the meadows are waterlogged (flooded)

So wellington boots are probably essential as water is draining from the embankments. These have now some green cover following last year's works by National Rail.


Nice to see the Quaggy full of water
