We have been talking for weeks about the idea of the students taking a shop space in the garden centre and this weekend it happened. Spurred by the garden centre cafes decision to close on a sunday, we claimed a space and with the help of volunteers and with a pile of furniture from the Chelsea buiilding society we opened up.
The plan is to use the space as a cafe in support of the garden on sundays and to gradually develop a real retail space for student training over the coming weeks.
The sunday cafe will be volunteer lead and judging by last weeks response,they will be kept busy.
Already a rota is growing in support of the day and last weekend we had several donations of cake.
