The sensory garden.
This was a completely free build by ourselves at Ladybird-Landscapes for Lenthall Infant and Nursery School
We are currently struggling to afford the purchase of our first home.
Doing our best to keep prices fair within the market.
However we still found time to help the next generation while not being able to help ourselves.
It was fantastic and exhausting donating each weekend and day off until complete. 6 days off since the start of the season and that was mainly due to illness or injury.
Estimated labour donation for completion.... 21k
We hope you can spread the word and show what true creativity can achieve from good willing local people.
Not a 50k set of swings and climbing frame in a desolate space.
But an eye catching collection of areas to fill the whole space.
β’Wildlife pond with oxegenating plants alongside a variation of attractants to frogs ,birds, bees, dragonflies and more. Petunia, viola, snapdragons, ferns, star moss, dianthus, foxglove, grasses, and soooo many more.
β’mud kitchen area with soft astro bottom, two attached blackboards with big colour chalks, fun water area that waters plants with play. And an epic aztec tipi surrounded by smelly plants from lavendar ,lillies , lemon balm and rosmary.
