Hi Mondaychild
Thanks for your replies, they will be using part of the existing lawn with two sides walled by a 11 feet wall the garden will be facing west with the wall south and east the guide hall runs along the north side. They do need something to give a boundary because they will use the rest of the lawn as a play area, but it can't be too high as the garden gets most sunlight from early morning till about two or three in the afternoon.
The idea I have was to split the girls into four groups which means there would be four beds each bed about 25 feet long by 6 feet wide and each group given the responsibility of looking after there bed for a year and to rotate them every year to give them something different to look after, the yoghurt pots is a good idea for them to grow there own at home and bring them into the garden. Getting ideas for each bed is needed but one being for veg of different types, the girls are aged from 8 to 14 and are keen to get started so that next year the garden will be looking nice

The girlguides are wanting to make there own new garden from scratch and are looking for ideas, the area at the moment is all lawn some 80x50 feet but they want to use the top area which would be 50x15 feet. They have donation from many garden suppliers from ganden gloves, plants, bird boxes, just about everthing needed including 30 trees from a local tree company.
This will be getting underway on the 19th of july and being in Scotland the rain and midgies will be there as well as guide group, so any ideas the more the better.
