Club Meetings
Our September Club meeting on Tuesday 8th September from 8-10 pm at Emmanuel Parish Centre will be a talk by Mark Gregory - 'The RHS Chelsea Flower Show: A Life's Work'. Mark can often be seen on the BBCs coverage of RHS Chelsea Flower Show. He has been responsible for the construction of many gardens on main avenue gardens at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show - most notably winning the RHS Garden of the Decade award in 2020 for the 2018 Welcome to Yorkshire Garden. A donation is being made to the horticultural charity Perennial for Mark's time.
Our August Club meeting was our Summer Show and Social. This summer has not been kind to gardens but our talented members were still able to find 145 beautiful entries for the show across floral, plug-plant, houseplant, flower arranging, have-a-go, vegetable, photography, handiwork, and hiccup classes. Congratulations to everyone who entered or come along on the night. There are photographs and the full table of results on the Summer Show 2026 page.
There is a growing set of photographs for this month on the August Photographs page and a complete set from last month on the July Photographs page. Gardens may have been devoid of rain, but there are still some beautiful flowers to be seen.
The 2026 Club Programme is available, as well as the Potting Shed pages, or the Newsletter for more information on Club meetings and activities.
Please contact us if you would like more information on membership or any of our activities.
