HRH The Prince of Wales

Friday, February 19th 2010

As you can see Foxglove had a very special visitor today. His Royal Highness, Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales came to spend some time relaxing in between his busy schedule. He was most interested to learn about all the work which is carried out by the staff, volunteers and the college students.

His Royal Highness, Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales

After a cup of tea and a look around the Field Centre he was presented with some Foxglove honey and a gilet for him to wear whilst gardening at Highgrove!

Hopefully he will come back to visit during the summer when the weather is more clement and the flowers are blooming.

Thanks to Whitfield for taking the photos as a record of a special day.
