Case Study – Transition Lichfield
A neglected plot of land in Lichfield, behind the Three Spires Shopping Centre, was too tempting for the Transition Lichfield group to ignore! The transformation only started in May, changing from a species-poor patch of grass bisected by a desire line to a colourful, vibrant patch of land which is generating lots of positive comments from passers-by. Well done to everyone involved.
