We have made a big investment in new planters for the town centre in 2020.
Some of our wooden barrels had seen better days. These planters are self watering and have a reservoir system so that watering frequency can be reduced. Over a number of years we have built up a small reserve from our sponsorship scheme which has enabled us to invest in providing the town with 12 planters to improve the quality of our displays.
The slightly raised height (compared the older wooden barrels) means more volunteers (especially those with back or mobility issues) will be able help plant up.
