Elderflower cordial making and seed sowing – family event
Wednesday, May 28, 2025 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Join Sonja in our productive Community Garden to forage for elderflowers in the surrounding woodland and make elderflower cordial! We’ll also be doing the usual allotment jobs such as seed sowing, harvesting, and weeding beds. Plant some herb or sunflower seeds to take home!
Location: Miller Fold Community Allotment, off Woodview Drive, BB5 ONT
Meeting place: The junction between Woodview Drive and Miller Fold Avenue (what3words: stooping.conquests.topping)
This is a family-friendly event, open to all ages. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult, please.
Hot drinks and snacks will be provided. Please bring anything else you might need!
Access is along a narrow, uneven path from Woodview Drive. The allotment itself is partly accessible, and there are places to sit and relax. There is no toilet or running water on site.
Please wear robust footwear and dress for the weather.
The closest bus stop is ‘St Oswalds RC’, which is a 3 minute walk away and is served by the A1 bus service from Accrington.
