Welcome to the June edition of The Villages Mag!
June is shaping up to be a busy and emotional month for our family, as my son is right in the thick of his GCSEs. Like many parents, we’re doing our best to support him through this important time, and we’re already looking ahead to what’s next.
Recently, he was lucky enough to land a weekend job at Sparks Lane Nurseries, working with the brilliant Brian Lowe. It’s been more than just a job, it’s sparked a real interest in horticulture. After a visit to an open day at Reaseheath College, he’s now applied to study Horticulture and Landscaping. We’re incredibly grateful to Brian for introducing him to the world of plants and inspiring a potential future career path. It’s a joy to see him so motivated and excited for what lies ahead.
But before college begins, he has a well-earned break to look forward to. Once the exams are over, his dad is taking him on a long-planned adventure to Japan , a once-in-a-lifetime experience that’s been years in the making. I’ll be staying home with the dogs and keeping things ticking along with the magazine, but I’m sure I’ll be getting plenty of photo updates as they explore Tokyo and beyond!
I hope June brings you sunshine, calm, and maybe even a little adventure of your own. As always, this issue is packed with local stories, events, and businesses to discover, perfect for enjoying with a cuppa in the garden.
