Work Experience
Hello all,
Just finished two days of work experience at Merrist Wood. I spent Wednesday installing an irrigation system to one of the benches in Greenhouse 3. It provides a misty light watering for plants that only require moisture and not a drenching. And today I've been helping to re-skin the twin poly-tunnel at the far side of the nursery. It was quite a handful as the wind picked up.
