Grapes Hill Community Garden - Bindweed Removal

Photo Gallery for Bindweed Removal

In early December we discovered that the topsoil that was stored for us on Mousehold Heath and delivered in November was full of bindweed roots, which we had to remove before planting up the garden.

Thanks to everyone who took part in our bindweed removal days.

Sunday 16th January 2011 - Bindweed Removal Weekend (Day Two)

We had a very productive and enjoyable day, and about twenty people took part, including volunteers from Norwich Community Green Gym. We finished digging bindweed roots out from the areas where we want to plant trees and we also cut down all the Buddleia bushes along the northern edge of the garden.
