The Method Behind our Madness....
So, what's it all about? Well, not everyone likes going to the gym, playing football, hiking or swimming, so we wanted to give people a different option to the traditional 'exercise'.
I don't know about you, but I certainly feel like I've run a marathon after spending a day weeding!That's why we thought we'd encourage people to do some planting. This doesn't have to be in a garden, it can be in a green house, allotment, conservatory or window box. It doesn't matter where!
Caerphilly, as a borough, doesn't come out very well in the Index of Multiple Deprevation, and poor health is pretty high on the list. So, we wanted to do a little something to try and give the community some support in getting active and getting healthy.
We hope that the Plant Exchange will also help to build links in the community and give people a chance to meet up, talk, make friends and share knowledge, skills and experiences!
So, there you have it, the method behind our madness!
We'd really like to make this an annual event, so we'll let you know how the very first Little Leaves, Big Blooms goes!!
