Our programme of talks re-starts on September 4th at St. Nicholas and St.Laurence School at 7.30pm. A speaker from The Gold Club will give a talk entitled The Lighter Side of Plants. We look forward to seeing you all again and perhaps some new faces too. Members should remember to bring their geranium and fuchsia plants grown from plugs provided by the Gold Club in the Spring.
Our Summer Show on 16th August attracted 280 entries from 27 exhibitors, The hall looked amazing as always, full of colour and interesting exhibits.
