Hurlford Sensory Garden
In Summer
2005, Community Liaison Officer Mark Davies, together with CSV Co-Ordinator
Anne Gold and Hurlford Centre Support Worker Tom Brentnall, agreed upon an
idea to create a
sensory and wildlife garden at Hurlford Day Centre, utilising a previously
drab and litter strewn
area to the rear of the centre.
The project
was designed to involve the CSV volunteers in the design and creation of the
garden
to include raised beds, colourful borders, bird feeding stations, butterfly
feeding stations,
nestboxes and woven living willow structures.
22 tonnes
of soil were kindly donated by All Seasons of Galston and a good selection
of plants were
obtained from Sunnyside Cottage Garden Nursery at Moscow.
