Hello! Just to let you know we will be repairing the windows soon and putting in all the extra security we have been advised to do, with all your help and kindness. I'll be back in touch when the work is done. For now though here is a picture of woad growing in the field. It has become our first crop this year, except for all the nettles and other wild forage we have been doing. Please come and visit whenever you want to. You might want to follow us on Instagram @commnofloradays. I hope this finds you well. On behalf of all of us at Common Flora, a huge thanks again. All the best Jane

Dear Friend With your help we reached our target in the nick of time! Thank you so much. We can now finally replace the broken windows and act on the advice from the Police to make the site safer. Anything left will be used to help us get this spring season of growing off to a good start. Please know you are welcome to visit. Just make contact and we'll be sure to have the kettle on. Many thanks again All the best Jane and the team :)

Just a little update on the fundraising. We have had advice from WPC Zoe Carter and now know how to better protect ourselves in future. We think there should be enough raised to put up another camera and some lights up. Huge thanks to all of you and especially our friend Saz, who on top of a donation also sent some special security lights. The moth was pictured at the last bioblitz. Who knows maybe you can all come to the next biodiversity check in, midsummer 2021. Wouldn't that be lovely! Thanks again to all All the best Jane
