Planters

PLANTING AROUND THE VILLAGE

The Village Residents’ Association plan to put planters on the Green areas beside the Weston Favell Village signs as you enter Church Way from Bewick Road. They will be quite large and made of redwood sleepers, so should look very attractive and welcoming to the village.

Please contact us if you have any comments to make or wish for further
information about these. They will be well away from the road and won’t
obscure the view as you leave Church Way.

We naturally plan to plant them up, with perennial plants and shrubs and would 
like to know if anyone, particularly those living close by, would be prepared to help with any watering necessary during the summer months, particularly in the first year.

We have a grant for the two Church Way planters, but would appreciate contributions towards the plants, and towards a third redwood planter near the top shop, which we hope to put in place towards the end of the year.

UPDATE OCTOBER 2017

ON SATURDAY 21ST OCTOBER OVER A DOZEN VOLUNTEERS TURNED UP TO ASSIST WITH THE PLANTING OF 1500 DAFFODIL BULBS BY PETER’S PATCH AND AT THE BOTTOM OF CHURCH WAY. PHOTOS SHOWING THEM WORKING HARD ARE ON OUR “PHOTOS” PAGE. 

WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THESE DAFFODILS  IN BLOOM NEXT SPRING.
