See what’s new in our Weston garden
It’s a new year and a new garden at Snapdragons Weston. We’ve invested in an exciting mini adventure space that excites and challenges the children, with structures for climbing, balancing, sliding, swinging and crawling, as well as a shingle-roof hut for cosier, quieter moments. We commissioned Bristol company Monkey Business Design to design and build the new garden after being impressed by their previous projects and their amazing sustainability credentials. Not only are they a small, local company, but natural environments are their passion. The wood they use is Douglas Fir, grown and milled in Somerset to Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) standards and the design of the structures eliminates the need for environmentally damaging concrete bases. And, just as importantly, they have a passion for nature and an understanding of spaces that encourage exploration.
The children are loving their new play space, despite the typically dark and dreary January weather, and we know they will have hours of fun ahead of them.
