There’s no better time to do it as this week is Community Garden Week across the UK and it is a celebration of school and community gardens everywhere.
Closer to home, we have artwork, music and sensory gardens.
And look at the pride on the faces of children in Cleadon, Bedewell and Marine Park as they show off the excellent produce from their school gardens.
Can you spot someone you know? The only way to find out is by joining us as we dig into the past.
