28th October Speaker - Dave Moon will be talking about the history, supported by pictures, of the National Garden Scheme (NGS). Visiting gardens gives you loads of ideas as well as being relaxing and fascinating to see what other people do. There are some good gardens to visit locally and your entrance fee goes to charity so a ‘win win’ situation. Do come, 7.15 for 7.30pm

25th November Speaker - Nick Gilbert on the Gilbert Dahlia Year.

The Gilbert Nursery grows over 400 varieties of dahlias; they hybridize to get their own new varieties. Nick has appeared on Gardeners’ World, in the national press and on Radio 4’s Gardeners’ Question Time.
