On Saturday 16th June we all had an enjoyable time wandering among the beautiful trees and surroundings in Saville Gardens, which is set in Great Windsor Park. The perfume that hit you when you approached the rose garden was incredible and made the day memorable.

Future Events

Our next meeting will be the BBQ at Catsbrain Farm on Monday 2nd July. This will start at 7.00pm with music by OK Re-United. Please remember to bring a plate, dish, cutlery plus any donation of a salad or a sweet.

On Saturday 18th August we will be holding our Annual Flower & Produce Show in the Village Hall. Everyone from the village or Gardening Club is welcome to enter any of the categories. We know there are many keen gardeners in the village, so come along with your produce and show what you have grown.

Schedules for the show will be available mid July from Mike on 827807 or Arthur on 832663. They can also give you any information about how to show if you are not to sure.

On Monday 16th May many of us were reminded of what life was like years ago with a talk by Pamela Clement on “Life from Victorian times onwards.”

She commented on the reasons why our ancestors cabbages grew so well ( something to do with having no inside toilets) and how everyday products were used as “cure alls” inside the house and in the garden.
