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!
