Last Sunday, along with litter-picking and cutting back Rubus cockburnianus and Buddleja up on Brighton Greenway, we moved bricks … and compost, several pallets and a wooden raised bed.
The Edible Growing group of Friends of Brighton Greenway is creating a small circle of raised beds by the central seating area for growing vegetables and fruit. After last year’s successful experiment, we’re installing five more raised beds to allow for a wider range of produce to be grown. The plan is to look at growing: courgettes, kale, rainbow chard, runner beans, strawberries, raspberries, herbs (sage, thyme, rosemary, mint, parsley and basil) and possibly carrots.
