Winter Planting Commences with help from East Riding Council
Andy Harper from EYRC Parks Dept donate more daffodil bulbs and pansies.
So it's out in the rain again for the team planting up beds on Welton Road.
Elloughton Road grass verges have also been planted with daffodils, which should provide a golden strip of delight come the Spring.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Let's hope it's a good one.

And thank you to all our volunteers and to everyone who has donated plants and money throughout 2020.
