Garden Working Party July 2023
What a transformation in 4 days! Shallowford House Team is so grateful to our hard-working and cheerful volunteer gardeners. Mowing and weeding, digging and planting, deconstructing and building, tidying and recycling – so much was achieved during our July 2023 Garden Working Party. Many areas of our 9 acre site have been impacted by their labours this time around, from lawns to flowerbeds, archery venue and labyrinth, to new large wooden crosses, fencing and hedges. Woven into the time they shared on site was a rhythm of worship and prayer, fellowship over hearty meals, and deepening friendships full of mutual support and laughter. Departing somewhat weary but with a great sense of accomplishment, they are all looking forward to the next event in October. Perhaps joining in would give you some of the joy they experienced this time. Have a look at our photos!
We would love to hear from you
