Jingle bells, jingle bells...

It's nearly Christmas so things here at the garden are a little hectic! We are preparing ourselves for the cold weather bound to be heading our way soon. Jenny, Derek, Katie, Daf and all the current wwoof volunteers are working like dogs to get everything ready at the garden for the up coming annual reindeer event.
The reindeer will be at Drummuir Walled Garden along side Santa and his grotto from Saturday 22nd till the 23rd of December. For the last two years we've had the reindeer and Santa come to the garden, Santa always brings lots and lots of presents to give to the children that visit him and also they get the chance to get pictures with Santa and his loyal reindeer, the perfect Christmas card! Also in the shop will be warm mince pies and hot mulled apple juice to warm you up on the cold winter days!

We're all excited for Christmas and hopefully we'll have some snow for the holidays. (Maybe no too much!)
