Planting Daffodils in Sole Street

On the morning of Wednesday 26 October volunteers planted daffodil bulbs along the verges of the main road through the village. The volunteers included local residents and children, members of the Meopham School Young Farmers Club, Cobham Gardeners Society members and Community Wardens, Jackie and Mandy.
