Gardening Group
The Group was formed in February 2001 and has been meeting
regularly since.
At present meetings are held in the houses of members every second
month to discuss any matter of interest for gardeners and to exchange
plants and seeds in season. Because the meetings are held in
houses it
is necessary to impose a limit on the number of members. The
different
venues afford the opportunity for members to benefit from viewing other
individuals' gardens.
During alternate months group visits are made to gardens open to the
public, nurseries and the like.
On occasions the Group has arranged for talks by speakers on gardening
subjects to which the public has been invited.
July
2006: Group Leader Frank Singleton retires as Leader!
Thank You Frank!
Our July meeting was held at Mary Gould's house
and garden. We discussed herbs and exchanged cuttings from members'
gardens.
A plant and a card were presented to Frank Singleton for all his hard
work over four years in keeping us on our toes. Thank you Frank.
The visit in August was to the "Secret Gardens of
Bakewell".
