Bannockburn House Trust has gifted a train planter to local tots to help teach them about growing their own food and plants.
The quirky garden gift will be used by the team at Bannockburn Nursery in their outdoor lessons.
Ross Caldwell, Events Manager and Volunteer Coordinator for Bannockburn House said: “The nursery spotted our climate change project and reached out to us to see if we could work with them to help the children learn about growing.
“We were more than happy to help and our volunteers got to work using old wood laying around the estate to create a fun railway planter which the nursery can use to teach children about food production and have access to some tasty and healthy vegetables.”
The children were delighted to see the planter on their return to nursery after the summer break.
Bannockburn House Trust has recently invested in woodworking equipment and is keen to make more planters for local causes. If you are interested in volunteering on projects such as this please contact [email protected]
