Something strange has happened — Bobo’s giant seedlings have escaped and are hiding all over Helston! Can you find them all?
Bobo, the loveable character from Caroline Pedler’s The Accidental Gardener, has been busy planting up his seedlings – but these aren’t ordinary seedlings.
Weird, wonderful, colourful and made from all sorts of materials by members of the community, the giant seedlings have popped up in shops and venues right across town.
Your mission: find them all, complete your trail, then head to Lakeside Cafe at Coronation Park to claim your prize!
Running throughout May half term, this free family trail is the perfect excuse to explore Helston’s shops and streets with your family before heading to Coronation Park.
