Cultivation Street is over for another year. And it has been a great second year for the campaign. Thank you to everyone who took part and helped make the UK a nicer place to live.
Thank you also to our fantastic entries. The quality of the entries has significantly increased this year – we’ve been blown away by everything you are doing!
We have had so many exciting new entries from communities that are just starting their gardening projects, as well as those that are already well established.
It has also been wonderful to see how the entries from last year have grown and developed – even more people are on board now. I hope the campaign gets people talking and encourages them to get involved in local gardening projects.
We have also seen a stronger interaction with the wider gardening industry, from growers, suppliers and garden centres. It’s fantastic to see so many people joining in!
This year we saw entries treble, and it was exceptionally hard to narrow them down.
We were particularly impressed to see the quality of entries to Cultivation School. It’s hugely rewarding and inspiring to see such dedicated teachers helping youngsters learn about plants, gardening and the outdoors.
Congratulations to all our regional and special category winners, and to our overall winners, Annie Street!
Please keep in touch to let us know what you are working on – we love to hear about your projects.
Best wishes,
David
