Gardening Club
We have 7 talks a year from experts covering all aspects of gardening and flower arranging and widen our horizons by inviting people from the farming community to talk to us.
Other months are taken up with our Social Evening in July Christmas Dinner and, of course, we have our Summer Show in August...a proper village event!

’We had an enjoyable evening at our September meeting when anxious owners of wilting orchids looked to the expert Geoff Hobson for help. He soon was shaking out pots and snipping at weary roots, repotting and advising on necessary TLC. Owners and plants returned home much encouraged.
​
We welcome Micky Little on Wednesday 21st October, 7:00 for 7:30 who will be talking from considerable experience on "Bulbs that Create a Sparkle of Delight". This is perfect timing when we are inundated with offers of various garden delights and we are hoping for the perfect bloom for our Spring Show. We are also keen to use our Gold Club discount card on spring bulbs.
​
Our competition daffodil bulbs will be also be available at the meeting so we must gather our special compost to produce the biggest and best blooms ever so we have a wonderful display when the show comes along. I have just planted last years efforts into the garden to add to the joys of spring.
​
We look forward to seeing you all at our next meeting.’- Christine McPherson
