Broomfield Park has had another triumphant year in the Enfield in Bloom competition, winning Gold for Best Maintained Park. Another Gold went to Broomfield Conservatory for its Exceptional Horticultural Contribution to the Community, while Broomfield Community Orchard was awarded Silver in the same category.
Both the Conservatory and Orchard are run by volunteers from the Friends of Broomfield Park. You can find out how the Friends' current and planned new projects are advancing at their Open Meeting on Monday. The winners of the Friends' Photo Competition will be announced at the meeting.
