In November 2012 we brought back the spirit of 90s with our very own 'Ground Force' garden makeover. We transformed the grounds of St Mary's College- Durham University into an eco garden in one weekend.

 

Thanks to the Students of St Mary's College, Durham University Botanical Garden, Kyle Wong Photography and Basement Jazz for their help.
