By the time you are reading this, we will have been on our guided tour of Harcourt Arboretum, and I am sure we all had a great time. I do like autumn in the garden, a chance to have a good clear out of borders, to dig over the veg plot, and plant up winter and spring pots to give seasonal colour, I have also looked at the state of my greenhouse and I think its had its day, so will be planning a new summerhouse for next year!
Our best wishes to Vic Bowman and family, June was a regular visitor to our talks and shows, we will all miss her infectious smile.
The AGM will take place in the Vale room on Wednesday 4th November, 7.30pm, my wine glasses have been dug out of their cupboard, and put though the dishwasher and are all bright and sparkly, ready for wine or juice, and we will also have cheese and biscuits to celebrate another year. I am informed we have a “Garden Surprise” as an entertainment, I know nothing!!
We will also have on sale at the AGM, tickets for the VPA Christmas social evening, to be held on Friday 4th December. If you would like to leave apologies for the AGM, or to book tickets for the social evening, email me karencbrooks@googlemail.com or leave a message on the answer phone 850219.
Happy gardening
