The Green Zone at Coleg Y Cymoedd

Our E3 catering group has taken full advantage of the lovely sunshine to help Merv fill the self watering pots and carry out some work around the green zone. 🌞🌞🌞

Merv and ILS groups have been busy planting seeds the past week. Unfortunately our local mice and squirals have been visiting during closing hours and helped themselves 👀😱

E3 Construction started work on moving donated bricks cement and sand up to the top of the zone in preparation to replace our wooden retainer beds. This was heavy work but they did a fantastic job working together to get it done.

E3 contructon had the task to work on their Communication skills while following instructions. They took on the challenge by putting together our new wheel barrows. Great work all 👌

This week we sold our amazing pumpkins, marrow and plants before learners have half term break. On return it will be time to prepare for winter ❄️

Today learners emptied out the potato sacks. Can not wait to see what they make in the kitchen with them next week. 👌

Scholars restaurant will be opening again soon for students to show off thier amazing tallents. Yesterday students were given service training using our edible flowers as garnish and end of season flowers as table decorations. We hope you all have a successful year! 🌻🌼🌸

Level 1 professional cookery students cleared up our fruit trees and made poached pears and crumble 😋 Its great to see our produce being used by learners and enjoyed by all.

Learners harvested the last of the runner beans ready to try in their next cooking lesson. Some of our learners attracted the butterflies, who decided to take a rest on them 🦋🦋
