**Summer Sale Now On!** . The weather forecast is

Do you fancy having a go at designing a garden? 🌱🌷🌿
.
Have you found you have appreciated your garden more than usual during Lockdown, found a new love of plants, or learnt new things about gardening? Do you have an artistic side just waiting for an opportunity to burst out? ✏
.
Parklea are holding a challenge this summer - giving you the chance to research, plan and design a 2m x 2m garden. The challenge is open to anyone- children and adults- but please include your age so that we can group entries into judging categories if neccessary. Our team at Parklea will choose a winner and we will build the winning garden in our grounds! Other than size, the only limit is your imagination! 💭
.
There are more details on our website www.parkleaassociation.org.uk and on our Facebook page.
Here you will find more detailed instructions along with hints & tips and some useful links.
.
Do take a look because it will help.
Once you have your idea you'll need to transfer your design to paper. It's easier if you keep it to scale but size down. E.g. A garden 2m wide could be 20cm wide on paper (then 1cm on paper = 10cm in the garden) We'll need a little bit of a description to explain what you have chosen and why. Maybe give your garden a name? Then it's up to you how you want to display it.
You could write a list of plants as a "key" down the side, you could have a go at a 3D sketch or cut pictures out of magazines like a mood board. We can't wait to see what you come up with... let your imagination BLOOM!! 🌸
.
POST OR HAND ENTRIES IN TO THE PARKLEA OFFICE BEFORE 4PM MONDAY 17TH AUGUST.
