edible playgrounds
Yummy cereal company, Dorset Cereals won a gold medal at this year's Hampton Court Flower Show with their Edible Playground. The garden, which will now be transported to Holy Trinity School in Weymouth, Dorset, is brimming with colourful and tasty plants from Pink Passion chard to blueberries, strawberries, sweetcorn, Welsh onions, Corsican mint and much more. A windmill powers a weepy hose watering system, and a wormery and compost bin deal with all the kitchen and green waste. An outdoor classroom area features a green roof and a rainwater collection system. Designer, Nick Williams-Ellis has loads of ideas for creating your own edible playground. Sounds delicious!
