I built a garden in two hours...

7 comments


Well the day went well. The weather was lovely all day, and there were plenty of people enjoying countryside day at college.
Lots for them to see and take part in and one of them was to watch two teams build a garden in two hours.

Here is my sketch of the garden we were going to build, using materials and plants at college.


The area was marked out with sleepers and at 1.30pm we had two hours to build a garden.
My friend from college helped and we had lots of positive comments. We were explaining to people it’s only a bit of fun and we were not using cement or planting the plants just positioning them, as it is only a pretend garden to show people whats ossible with a small space.

So heres the finished garden.


My little helper Evan came to see it too.
Hope you like it. It got the peoples choice.

It looks beautiful, Dan, very deserving of the People's Choice. So glad the weather was kind to you too.
It must be very sad taking such a lovely garden apart at the end of the day, but good to know that it has inspired visitors.
