Gardening Guild

Gardener’s thoughts are now turning to spring with the hellebores flowering and bulbs starting to appear. The very topical theme for the talk on 18th February in the Village Hall is “Snowdrops”; this talk was due to take place last February but had to be cancelled, so members are looking forward to hearing Helen Harrison talk on this subject. New members and visitors welcome.
