Cultivating a Change

The combination of the Covid-19 lockdown and unseasonally good weather has tempted many people into their gardens (when they have one). Such people would presumably welcome news that Garden Centres will soon be given the signal to reopen in Wales and other parts of the UK (https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/may/08/uk-garden-centres-prepare-for-sales-surge-to-end-catastrophe-of-lockdown). We must not lose sight, however, of the fact that many Garden Centres have diversified, offering restaurant facilities, brief child care, book stores and even antique/ collectable sales. Some of these additions might well counter attempts to limit the spread of the virus to shoppers. One can only hope that careful consideration has been given to which are allowable and this will be specified in the political advice given to Centres.
