WHAT COMES A MOUND
Guerilla gardeners at Brighton’s new food-growing community garden The Mound (SchNEWS 762) received a possession order on Wednesday (16th). They are now going to fight their corner in court on the 23rd March.
The garden held a successful open day on Sunday (13th) during which new vegetable patches were filled, seeds were sown, and stove-making workshops were held.
Despite there being no immediate plans to develop the once-barren site, it’s likely the success of the the Lewes Road Community Garden has got the owners worried that public support for the garden will become a thorn in their side in the future (see SchNEWS 739).
