Sunflower Growing Competition
Liz Johnson has decided to do a sunflower growing competition. You can either collect from their house/garden wall by Lowe’s marble or Liv Maycock in the middle of the village when out for their daily walk, hopefully we’ll share some pictures on here of the sunflowers as they grow. Thank you Liz, this is a super idea.
