Gardening

I love gardening and for the last 16 years as a Mum I have usually had a companion or two at my side. Here you will find posts about gardening with children as well as gardening in general. There are tips to keep little hands busy and beginner tips for you if you are starting out on the horticultural road as well as photo posts of my favourite seasonal plants/jobs/garden fun!

If you would like to join our gardening club please follow the #TSGardenClub hashtag on Twitter, ask me for an invite to our Gardening with Kids Google+ Community or for an invite to my Gardening with Kids Pinterest Board. You can email me at chris@thinlyspread.co.uk, please join me in the potting shed!
