About
As the Floating Garden tours the Scottish Canal network, it will stop at several locations, visiting local communities along its journey. At each stop a flower singer will come alive, singing harvest songs while you have a chance to pick up some free, easy growing plants - to kickstart your growing journey. Come along to experience the fun and join in on a summer of growing!
