GARDEN centre retailer Dobbies is hosting a free sustainable workshop on Sunday, June 5 at its Galton site at Owermoigne created for kids in celebration of Peter Rabbit’s 120th birthday.
Taking place during National Children’s Gardening Week, children are invited to join a Grow with Peter Rabbit workshop, which will include a range of exciting gardening-themed activities for children aged 4-10.
Children will delve into the world of Beatrix Potter, have the chance to explore Mr McGregor’s vegetable patch, learn how to keep their own fruit and vegetables safe in a sustainable way, and how to welcome wildlife into their garden.
