The good news is that South East in Bloom will still go ahead this year but all entries will need to be submitted for judging as Powerpoint. There is going to be a special award to the group or community who have been the most innovative under the current circumstances. To this end we hope you have been enjoying our daily photos on the Farleighs Facebook page showcasing the lovely spring flowers around the village – particularly for those who are self-isolating at home and missing it all. If you have enjoyed seeing the photos we would really appreciate if you could let us know by emailing bloom@thefarleighs.co.uk for us to submit to the judges. The favourite one so far. which is on the front cover, got 71 likes.
We also posted an idea for making a bee home for children to do at home. If you have made one – please let us know – or if you would like to make one for our designated wildlife area at the top of Teston Lane that would be fantastic. You can find instructions on Utube “Eco How: How to make a beehome”.
One of our villagers has been volunteering for the Bloom team as part of his Duke of Edinburgh award and has been working hard on clearing areas of the wildlife area and planting some flowers for which we are very grateful.
