Chris Beardshaw has joined Candide to help explain what we can do to help and why it matters that we support how we can. Very importantly he explains that all the profits from any sales through the Candide marketplace go directly to the seller, Candide are not making money from this.Regular readers will remember that recently I reviewed Tamsin Westhorpe's new book: Diary of a Modern Country Gardener. Tamsin with Orphan Publishling have released a free download of Get into the Garden with your Kids. This download is aimed to help give you thirty days of fun in the garden throughout April whilst we social distance and the schools are closed.and I am also trying to do what I can. The National Garden Scheme have been enabling people to open their gardens to raise money for charities for over 90 years. They are facing an 80% reduction in donations due to the current necessary restrictions. My garden has never opened for NGS as, well frankly, I have never thought it good enough. In these desperate times though I have decided that I will publish small videos of my garden on my Facebook page Blackberry Garden to raise money for the NGS. I have set up a JustGiving page so that the money goes directly to them. So if you have a moment to spare and want to wander over and have a look please do. If you can make a donation that would be fantastic no matter how small.
