VPA Summer Show Schedules Now Available

June 2, 2019

Don’t forget our day trip on Saturday 8th June to The Vyne at Sherborne St John RG 24 9HL. The Vyne is a National Trust 16th century country house and estate. Full details of the time a nd transport arrangements will be available from Karen at Blewbury Post Office or from Maggie Maytham in Upton (01235 850126)

There has been a slight delay in producing the Summer Show Schedule – it should now be available either in the Blewbury post office or online by emailing Eileen on vpa.in.bl.up@gmail.com or by ringing Margaret in Upton on 01235 850126. You don’t have to be an expert and it’s great fun taking part. Don’t forget the Childrens’ Section – hopefully we will have a few more junior exhibitors taking part this year.

DID YOU KNOW ?  “The sunflower is a native plant of the Americas, where the Indians used its seed as an important source of food.  The Incas of Peru were sun worshippers and used it in religious ceremonies.  The sunflower leans towards the sun in a process known as heliotropism.”

Happy Gardening—Eileen
