Carole Baxter was in Fairlie and interviewed pupils at Kelburn Primary School for the Beechgrove Garden.

The Fairlie Community Garden will be featuring in the Beechgrove Garden which will be broadcast on Wednesday September 24 on BBC2 at 7pm. Pupils from Kelburn Primary School will also be featuring in the show as they have taken an active part in the wormcasting process featured at the garden.

A BBC spokeswoman said: “Presenters Jim McColl and Carole Baxter re-visit the new community garden at Fairlie. They first visited this project 2 months ago and at that stage the garden was very new and is an extension of their community compost and wormery schemes.

“Both presenters catch up with the community to find out how this season has been for them and what more ambitious plans they have for next year.”
