We are recruiting a garden design group to help create a new planting plan for the White Garden as well as other areas of the park. The garden design group will meet on weekdays and weekday evenings on a monthly basis from March onwards. They will participate in research trips to RHS Lindley Library and Sissinghurst’s famous White Garden as well consulting with the lead garden designer. This is an excellent opportunity to learn about the garden design process whilst also contributing your ideas to the future of the Rookery.
If you are interested in joining the group, please contact Charlotte Dove at rookery100@streathamcommon.org / 07931501422 or come along to one of our volunteer mornings on the third Friday of every month – from 10am-12pm, meet at the café on Streatham Common. We help with general maintenance tasks around the Rookery. Next session will be on Friday 21 February.
