On Tuesday June 19th, the Club visited two gardens belonging to members in Chipping Campden and one belonging to a neighbour. Three different gardens but all excellent, interesting and well cared for. What a high standard they set for us! The evening finished with a supper and drinks-the beautiful weather enhanced the whole evening. Many, many thanks to our Chipping Campden members for an unforgettable evening.

Our July meeting was a ‘mystery visit’ to a private garden. It was an extremely interesting visit with a wonderful wildflower meadow and kitchen garden. We all learnt a lot.

The Club had a stall at the Ebrington Village Fete on Saturday 14th July. All the plants were sold! Many thanks to the Club members who grew them for the Fete especially Peter and Paddy Ellis.
