Good evening everyone,
I hope you are all well and have been enjoying the recent hot weather, despite the weather being a little damp today it's good to have someone else to water the garden for a change.
Firstly many thanks to all who came along to the NGS open garden at Norchard Manorbier, to be honest I didn't expect such a beautiful garden, and the weather and cakes made it a bit special.
If there's enough interest, we could go back for a further visit later in the year, so please get back to me if you are interested please, we would require twenty plus to make it happen.
On the 13th of August we are planning a Summer Show at the village hall, the sections include: Cookery - Preserves - Art - Photography - Craft - Flowers - Floral Art - Garden Produce - Children's Section. This is our first attempt at a live show, and hopefully will build on the successful Virtual Shows undertaken during lockdown.
The purpose of the Summer Show is to bring people together post Covid and to show off the talent we have in our community, so please make every effort to take part.
Who knows, in the future we may be awarding prizes and trophies, but as this is our first attempt there will be certificates on offer for those placed first to third place.
All entry forms should be emailed to Sue01.meg@gmail.com or posted to Sue James Meadow Croft, Amroth Road, Llanteg, Narberth, Pembrokeshire, SA67 8QJ by Thursday the 11th of August.
All exhibits can be delivered to the hall on either Friday the 12th of August and between 7 and 8pm or before 11am on Saturday the 13th of August.
The show will open to the public at 2pm on the Saturday and there will be an admission charge of £2 per adult with children admission being free, this includes some refreshments.
The Schedule of Classes and Application Form is attached.
However, this does mean we won't be able to take online images of exhibits, but if anyone wishes to send in an art entry long distance, then please post it to Sue James, Meadowcroft, Llanteg, Narberth, SA67 8QJ.
We are also trying to support Ludchurch Hall and in particular their Summer Gardening Show which is due to take place on Saturday the 6th of August at their new hall, more information to follow when we receive it.
So if you're a judge or you wish to exhibit your entry in both shows, then you could pop along to Ludchurch Hall as well as Llanteg Show?
Also Gardeners Question Time radio program is being recorded at the Queens Hall Narberth on the 28th of June - get in touch if you want more info on tickets.
Finally, Many thanks to Pauline and Ken for holding a fundraising event on behalf of our Gardening Group last week, and thanks to everyone who came along and made the day so enjoyable.
Kind regards,
Roy
