The area has some great 'Green Credentials', the Rivergate Centre boasts a lovely green roof, almost meadow like. Some of us are lucky enough to see this daily and enjoy it. @UELSRI we’re kind enough to give us a tour last year. #london #greenroof #ecology #barkingriverside

A couple of before and afters. Turned over the beds, removed the weeds and planted some fresh new @waywardplants in them. Still loads to go in. Lovely working in a bit of sun and shade. Fingers crossed for some rain ☔️ Also thanks to #ChelseaFlowerShow @The_RHS @barkingriver

Not a bad haul. Car full of plants from @waywardplants @barkingriver and @The_RHS #ChelseaFlowerShow all ready to be planted in our community garden in the next few days and weeks.
