Chilly mornings at the allotment are just a blast! Our veterans truly enjoyed every minute of building raised beds. Who doesn't love a little frostbite while gardening? And guess what? Not a single pinky was cut! ππ±

This weekend, we come together for a Day of Remembrance, honoring the brave souls who have served our country.
Together, we will honor their memory and acknowledge their contributions to our peace and freedom. We will remember them. πΊ #RemembranceDay#LestWeForget#mcngcic
Thank you to everyone that turned up this morning and helped move the shed to its new location.
Nobody died this time so we'll count that as a win π

As we dive into our classic British rainy weather, let's take a moment to appreciate our incredible veterans. As we approach Remembrance Day, check in on each other. Remember, take care of yourselves and each other. Cheers!

Just your average day at the horticultural therapy allotment project: a ton of manure delivered and our veterans are ready to "dig in"! Who knew therapy could smell this good? Remember, folks, every flower needs a little fertilizer... and a lot of laughter! ππΌ #VeteransInNature
Kicked off the day with a delicious breakfast of bacon cobs and brews, accompanied by plenty of banter! π
We tackled the challenge of moving a shed, and letβs just say there was a bit of swearing and cursing involved.

Today, we honour and remember the brave heroes who landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944, during WWII. As we commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, let us never forget the courage and selflessness of those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
