The resident gardeners make a start on a designer bed whilst we plant lots and lots of primulas next door!🌷@KirkleesCouncil So many people passing through the park stop to say how much they appreciate it 🌳🍂🌼

Not that long ago, Friends of Greenhead Park and Kirklees Council funded the installation of this fabulous play train. Here we are, along with Annabelle, a very keen assistant, giving it a good clean. 🧽 @KirkleesCouncil

Some socially distanced deadheading yesterday has helped to keep the beds in tip-top condition 😊 @KirkleesCouncil

[Friends of Greenhead Park @GreenheadOf]

@SueKilcoyne Lovely photos 😊

@YorkshireBloom I’m afraid not. We appreciate that this can make things tricky when travelling any distance to visit the park. We’ll let you know when the situation changes. Thank you for your support.

[Friends of Greenhead Park @GreenheadOf]

@YorkshireBloom That would be great, I’m sure you’ll enjoy your visit. If you’d like to meet one or two members of our group (abiding by social distancing rules of course), please let us know.

Hooray, it’s summer bedding time 😀 ⁦@KirkleesCouncil⁩

Great news! From Monday we can now meet up to 6 people outdoors - keeping 2m away from anyone from another household of course. Please remember that BBQs are not allowed in the park.
Picnics are fine but please take any rubbish home - your help would be much appreciated 🙂

@hanpai1234 Hi, sorry but not sure of the answer to that question. Will try to get the information for you.

Back in November, the Friends of Greenhead Park planted wild cherry, rowan and silver birch saplings, kindly provided by the Woodland Trust. A few months on, the tiny trees are now sprouting new leaves - a great morale-booster in these difficult times 🙂 @WoodlandTrust
