out & about Bee Happy Houston This busy group had another successful morning at the Cemetery where one of the beds is now almost fully edged with decorative stones; A Norwegian Fir and a couple if box hedges have been planted nearby. A grit bin left in the wrong place was emptied, relocated and refilled. The grass has been cut in and around the Community Orchard which is starting to show evidence of fruit on the bushes. The car park bed at The Fox and Hounds has been weeded and tidied; and the bed around the footpaths at Houston Primary has now been edged. 3 separate areas on the approach from Bridge of Weir have been cleared and scattered with lupin seeds. This will hopefully provide Summer colour for years to come. The group would also like to thank the kind resident who made a donation while they were tidying up.
Brighter Bridge Of Weir PLEASE, MAY... ...we get back to nearly normal, please may the weather be good. In normal times, May is one of Brighter Bridge of Weir’s busiest periods. There’s a lot we need to do to be ready for summer. We managed to get through last year’s difficulties, and things are certainly looking more promising now, so we’re hoping for the best.
HERITAGE GARDEN... The long-awaited ‘unveiling’ of Brighter Bridge of Weir’s Heritage Garden will take place on Saturday, 22nd May, at 11am. We are mindful that the pandemic has not gone away and so it won’t be a bells and whistles event, however, we were determined to get the work opened up for summer. We are very grateful to you all for the support that we have received from the community.
PLANTERS... The summer plants for the street planters, barrier baskets and the like are due for delivery either at the end of this month or the beginning of next. We’ve already been out tidying things up here and there, and even painting a wall, so we are match fit. Let’s hope that everyone gets the chance to really have a very merry month of May (and June)..
