Come along
and learn more about plants and the practical aspects of gardening
in a friendly environment, or join us on our garden visits.
Meetings take place at the nursery on the first Wednesday of the
month from 11.00 am onwards, usually lasting around two hours. Cost
is £3 per person including refreshments and new members are always
welcome.
Each meeting is divided into two
parts with a break for refreshments in between. In the first half
we look at a plant family that is at its best in that month, while
in the second half we cover a practical aspect of gardening relevant
to the season.
