The Hounslow Community Farming Association are pleased to announce their first series of horticultural workshops for local residents taking place from March 2010 at their site on Faggs Road in north Feltham.
The Hounslow Community Farming Association and Capel Manor horticultural college at Gunnersbury Park have teamed up together to offer horticultural training opportunities.
HCFA members were back digging at Faggs Road this week after the frozen weather had cancelled scheduled sessions.
The Hounslow Community Farming Association has won it's first environmental award after receiving the "Highly Commended" prize at the 2009 Green Guardian Awards.
Weather on the other side – apparently the wettest November on record - not a month goes by without a meteorological record being broken. Record or no record it has certainly been wet and the plots were difficult to work.
If you would like to become a member or gain practical experience in horticulture, by lending a hand on site, HCFA holds work days on Saturdays, Sundays and Tuesdays between 10am and 12.30pm.
