Bellamy_JPGresized(1).jpg" />The world’s best known ‘garden’ was filled with award winning London gardeners recently for the presentation of London’s Green Corners Awards. Many came to Covent Garden equipped with the tools for the job – albeit broken ones for repair in the workshops of HMP Wandsworth as part of the Foundation’s Tools Shed project. The presentation, at which the Conservation Foundation’s president David Bellamy, right, was a speaker, took place in a specially created Green Corner within the world famous gardeners’ market normally reserved for customers of a wine bar and opera singers.
