Our Projects
2nd Avenue Wilding Project
This project is not just about wilding the space, but also celebrating its heritage. A life-size carved oak sculpture of a Highland soldier of Napoleonic times has been commissioned, together with information boards regarding Weeley's history, and also the flora and fauna found at the site.
(Some sponsordship and funding has been given to the project - we thank Rose Builders for £250, and the Parish Council for £500. An annoymous donor will be supplying the reiming shortfall.)
Queen's Corner
Now coming into its third year, the ad hoc planting that was done after the removal of all the dead shrubs and brambles, has also been removed.
Chairman Julia is undertaking a design for future planting at the site, to make the area at the back more horticultural, but also wildlife friendly, with colour throughout most of the year.
This is an exciting project and we would welcome support as we progress.
There are many strands to the work in which the volunteers of Weeley in Bloom get involved.

Usually takes place in late May for Spring/Summer, then again in October for Autumn/Winter
