Autumn Antics

The latest pieces of artwork to adorn the park's walls are the 'Lowes Market Garden' mural and 'Cuthill Garden'.  Both murals are collaborative works painted as part of The Big Draw.


The murals aren't the only new thing in the park: the area earmarked for the community garden has been flattened by a digger loaned from Cockenzie Power Station.  Lorraine and her colleagues from Mobex have kindly strimmed away the area along the metal fence ready for planting some hedging. 
Prestonpans, like the park itself, is forever changing.  There are several new housing developments within walking distance from the park and we welcome residents new and old, to come and be part of its transformation.  

On the practical front, we could do with some pallet collars (not pallets) which are always to be found on building sites.  They are perfect for building raised beds and, as they are stackable, would be great for making potato towers.
 
Next work-in day: Friday 22 Oct, 1p.m.  taking delivery of compost and filling half barrels.  Family-friendly, come along and help.
