Poem about the garden

The Growing Gardens Project
Is a place to come and play,
A place to come and sit or a
place to spend the day.

It’s a place to see the birds,
or a place to watch the frogs,
a place to think of words or a
place for three hedgehogs.

The Growing Gardens Project
is a place for the wildlife,
A place for them to roam and a
place for them to home.

So come and see us here,
Explore the gardens land,
But be sure to make it clear
If you want to lend a hand!
