First of all an apology to anyone who has returned to our blog to find no new postings. Lack of time is one side effect of doing a garden at Hampton Court! We will endeavour to be regular bloggers from now on and catch up as quickly as possible with what has happened to date.
Having a good idea is one thing, executing it is another, the 'who', the 'how' and where is the money going to come from. Our plans were provisionally accepted back in mid February, subject to us satisfying the RHS on these points, but in the current economic climate it has proved difficult to secure financial backing. In end it has only been a generous grant from the RHS (some horticultural 'quantitative easing') and equally generous contibutions from a number of people and businesses, in terms of materials, expertise and time. We are very grateful to all of them.
You will meet the team as the blog continues but for now they are Hill Holt Wood, Greenmile Trees, Hanbeck Natural Stone, Olsen Landscapes, Andy Craig (dry stone waller), Clive Braddock (hedgelayer) and Alison Walling (environmental artist)
