Community Spaces have just awarded Rosliston Forestry Centre in South Derbyshire £41, 814 to create a 40ft herb garden in the shape of a human!

The human shaped herb garden, which has been nicknamed ‘Herbie’ will consist of a raised flower bed planted with herbs used for medical purposes on different parts of the body.

The group are aiming to a to have ‘Herbie’ finished by the summer! We look forward to seeing some photos of the finished garden!

We first mentioned the ‘Herbie’ project in our innovation blog piece see: http://blog.community-spaces.org.uk/2010/09/what-is-innovation  If your group is developing a project that is a little bit different please tell us about it by following the link.
