Tracey
Hi, I'm Tracey. I've had the pleasure of being involved with the community garden since the beginning and its been wonderful to watch it develop as we encourage others to come together and garden. I am a great believer in the power of nature on our mental and physical health and the benefits that can be enjoyed and I love to see others gain in confidence, making new friends and learning new skills.
