Burnham-on-Sea & Highbridge Town Council complete planting of Marine Cove flowerbeds

On Tuesday 20th May, Burnham and Highbridge Town Council Estates Team, assisted by the Growing Group volunteers, successfully completed the planting of the flower beds at Marine Cove.

The carefully selected mix of sustainable plants suitable for this location ensures a vibrant and resilient display, designed to enhance the scenic beauty of the area while remaining well-suited to the coastal environment, resulting in a beautiful and colourful display for the enjoyment of residents and visitors to the town.
