Gardening Club News – Sept 2010

B.B.Q – on Monday 5th July Eric Barnes very kindly allowed us to use his facilities at Catsbrain Farm for our annual B.B.Q. Everyone enjoyed the entertainment by Jean and Barry Kitgariff along with the excellent food and good company.

On Saturday 16th August we held our Flower Show. Despite the weather (gardeners always complain) there were plenty of exhibits for all to admire.

Here are the results:-

Challenge Cup for vegetables – Ashley New

Geoff Sansum Trophy for a standard fuchsia – Richard Sansum
Flower Arrangers Cup – Rita Smith and Sheila Lavender
