Formally opened by the Mayor of Hounslow
On Saturday 10th September Mayor Ajmer Grewal and her consort, Cllr Pritam Grewal braved the elements to officially open Cultivate London's new training and community space, the Salopian Garden.
They admired the different areas of the garden dedicated to flowers, fruit, veg and herbs, watched the kids making pizzas in the new cob oven, and then took refuge in the polytunnel where the heritage tomato crop this year has been outstanding. The Salopian Garden was left to the National Trust by a local resident and Cultivate London has received grants from the Postcode Lottery Trust and other bodies to transform the space.
Earlier in the week Cultivate London held a fundraising event, catered by chef Oliver Rowe, which raised £5,000 for the charity.
The Worshipful The Mayor of the London Borough of Hounslow, Councillor Ajmer Grewal - what is she laughing at?
