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!

Seasonal Colour and Interest in the Garden
18th March
​
This month we have a visit from Mike Mills, of the Garden Group in
Sherborne. He will be talking about Seasonal Colour and Interest in the Garden. The information we have
says this subject varies every year! With the introduction of new varieties of plants it should be an interesting
and informative guide through what to grow to get the best out of our gardens at this time of year. No doubt he
will bring some plants along as examples...and for sale!
Join Us
Every third Wednesday of the month
Doors open at 7pm for teas, coffees with the meetings starting at 7:30pm

We welcome all gardeners and would-be gardeners, young and old and among our members there are some well informed gardeners who are always very happy to give advice.
