We’ve been working hard to clear and renew some of the areas around Anderston, and as we develop plans for each area we want to hear from you - the community. Do you want seating? Specific plants? What would make you want to spend more time outdoors in Anderston?

[Anderston Green Spaces @AnderstonGS]

Yesterday we planted hazel, hawthorn, dogwood, dog rose and crab apple as well as bluebells, snowdrops and wild garlic bulbs.
Looking forward to spring to see them perp up!
We protected this new planting with a fence - please keep your eyes on it all when you're nearby! 💚🌿

Absolutely exhausted from scything with @TCVScotland in the Anderston Orchard! Was fun to learn a new skill that will be great to use here and in future green spaces. Bonus pic of some blueberries that were grown in Anderston!! So proud of our wee area! 💚🌿 #PeopleMakeAnderston

[Anderston Green Spaces @AnderstonGS]

A huge thank you to Camilo from @TCVScotland for scything 101! An interesting and exhausting day scything the orchard. It’s looking much more today and best of all, it’s a carbon free activity! 💚🌿#PeopleMakeAnderston
