9 March 2023 Update

Good morning everyone,

I hope you are all well, staying warm and looking forward to the brighter days ahead.

With regard to our planned visit to Gelli Uchaf next Sunday the 12th of March, this visit is now cancelled due to the weather conditions forecasted for the next few days.

We will replan the visit to a later date, but with the possibility of snow on high ground and temperatures approaching freezing conditions over the weekend, then it's better to be safe than sorry.

On a different subject; If anyone is interested in having an allotment in the area, then please email Kathryn Bradbury who is the Clerk to Amroth Community Council (Amrothclerk@outlook.com), who will then put you on the list.

Finally, we have a list of gardens to visit in the coming months, and we will get that information out to you soon.

If you've any suggestions for gardening talks in the future, then please let us know.

Kind regards,

Roy
