FARTHING COMMON PLANT CENTRE, STONE STREET, KENT UK
Do you get fed up going to the same garden centres? I know I do, so I did a Google search to find all the ones in Kent. This is the one that came up that I had never heard of, so I was eager to pop over and have a look round. What an amazing garden centre!

This is obviously where landscapers go on the TV programmes, as they always come up with plants that…

I always have problems with the stones in the garden moving, leaves dropping on them, and generally looking untidy.

I opened up the small summer house and sorted all the painting equipment out, as I…

I lay with him when it was his bedtime and fell asleep with him until the morning. After breakfast, we went to the park for football. I felt worn out just watching him run about. In the…
