As mentioned at the JCR meeting, there is a planting happening at the botanical gardens (location in image attached) tomorrow, if you want to volunteer and help. Here's the info provided to me, but generally I'd say turn up between 11:30 and 3 in sturdy shoes if you want to help out.
"Botanic Garden, Thursday 7th October 10-3pm
10am: Durham Wildlife Trust (DWT) and DU Grounds Staff meet
10:30-11:30, rotavator in action
11:30-3pm: prepare seedbeds (breaking clods, raking a seedbed etc), and sowing seeds
If you're getting involved make sure you wear sturdy shoes and clothes you don't mind getting dirty."
