10th Nov 2019 Update

Good morning everyone on this bright sunny day, so far anyway!

On the 7th of December, we have a practical pruning session at Ruel Wall with Marie. 
The session starts at midday and should last around two hours, this is very much weather dependent.
Marie works at Greenacre Market Garden, you may remember her when we visited Greenacre earlier in the year. 
Many thanks to Mike and Carolyn for hosting this event for us. 

As for the demonstration regarding Christmas wreaths with Paul Webb.I have decided not to go ahead with this at this time, due to a lack of interest from the group.

The guest speaker at St Clears Gardening Club on November the 11th at 7pm is Sheena Crossley. 
Her talk is "Gardening made Easier", the charge is £2 per person (for the raffle). 
If you would like to car share, then please meet at our Village Hall at 6:30p, otherwise meet at St Clears school please.

As for the gardening talks, Dawn is producing a postcard size program as a helpful reminder of future talks.
Thanks again Dawn.
