Aspire’s Thriving ‘Yarden’!

Aspire’s small but very mighty Gardening Group have worked very hard to reclaim some unused space at the front of their building and over several years have turned it into a very special restful and pretty “Yarden”. For the second year running the hard working Gardeners have been preparing to enter into “Chester Le Street in Bloom”,  an opportunity facilitated by Chester Le Street Business Association. The Gardeners have been planning, planting, painting sprucing up and getting their little but very well loved space competition-ready all year! The yarden is now producing corn on the cob, tomatoes, cucumber, potatoes, onions, strawberries, herbs, and an amazing display of flowers.

The group was delighted to take the prize for “Fabulous Frontage” and the Gardeners are going to Lumley Castle on Tuesday 15th July to be presented with their prize!
