There is an interesting article in the Eastwood & Kimberley Advertiser regarding the transformation of the outside play area at Underwood Primary School. This school was the proud beneficiary of a £2,000 grant so they decided to transform their outside area and purchased some Railways Sleepers to create vegetables beds to encourage children to grow their own produce.

The transformation in this area had such a huge knock-on effect, there were posters put up across the county which read ‘Dig For Victory’, to tie in with the world war two rationing morale. The head teacher at Underwood Primary School said: “It's all about teaching the pupils about self–sufficiency and it will give them a better understanding of where produce comes from, so they know it doesn’t grow at the supermarket!”

Once again this magnificent story highlights the effect of transforming a garden can do for so many people. So what are you waiting for? Come and join the wave of opportunism, by viewing AVS Fencing Supplies fantastic ‘Grow your own range’, which consist of a variety of raised vegetables beds that will not only save money, but mean you will have the best tasting vegetables in town!
