Very sadly, Greg Smith, Burgess Park’s head gardener died at the beginning of December 2024. We, the Friends of Burgess Park, will miss him very much. He was a great friend to the Friends.
In his blogs, he wrote about his research into the care and improvement of the park’s meadows, in particular the wild flora. Many of Greg’s photos are included.
As well as documenting his own experience, he was keen to develop the meadows in the future and encouraged us all to appreciate and take care of our environment.
