Thank you so much for the grant. The application was easy to fill in and the response from Bolton Green Umberella was quick.
The funding was used to buy top soil for new raised beds that we have recently put in place. The top soil has also been used for the planting of flower seeds to attract the beneficial insects
We are all very grateful as this has provided us with more resources to grow food locally
