booked both next year’s
show and sale with Civic
Garden Centre. Our own spring plant sale was bigger than ever before. In mid summer, we sponsored a brand new event in the form of our Sweet Pea Show.

If you could help with the set up or manning of such exhibits, your participation would be encouraged. Please contact
