At Last – Some Decent Weather!
With the sunshine finally making an appearance, it’s the perfect time to get back into the garden — and we’ve got a few updates and opportunities to help you make the most of it.
GFAA Annual Plant Sale – Sunday 18th May 2025
We’re excited to announce that the GFAA Annual Plant Sale is happening again this year!
Date: Sunday 18th May 2025
Time: From 10:30 AM
Location: On-site
Just like last year, we’ll be offering a wide range of vegetable seedlings, tomato plants, and other homegrown plants — all at very low prices! We’ve even got some second-hand gardening tools available this year.
Raymond (Plot 83) will be on hand to offer technical advice and plant wisdom, so don’t hesitate to chat with him.
Please bring cash.
All proceeds go towards maintaining and improving our shared communal areas.
Remnants of the Annual Bonfire
There are still some remains from our GFAA Bonfire in the North Car Park.
Feel free to take what you can make use of — but please be cautious of any nails or screws that may be mixed in with the ash.
Horse Manure Deliveries
Great news for soil lovers! We’ve arranged a few small deliveries of locally sourced horse manure.
You’ll find bagged manure left beside the south Planings bin.
You’re welcome to help yourself, but please dispose of the empty bags responsibly once you’ve used the contents.
On-Site Rubbish Issues
We’ve noticed a rise in rubbish dumping, especially around The Bothy recycling area.
While we’re all in favour of recycling (and The Bothy is a great resource!), please don’t leave general waste behind.
Take it home with you, or drop it at a nearby recycling centre — Hazlehead Recycling Centre is a great option and always very helpful.
Let’s all do our bit to keep the site beautiful, clean, and welcoming for everyone.
Happy gardening!
