We are fasr approaching our 140th Anniversary in 4 years time , We will be planning how to mark this soon,
We are a friendly group of enthusiastic gardeners willing to share our knowledge of all things green.
We are proud of our commitment and longstanding community involvement, with groups, schools, allotments and South East in Bloom. Last year the Town achieved Gold status along with Muster Green and Western Road Cemetery. The Town was also chosen as 1 of 6 Large Towns in Britain in Bloom 2024 and we were awarded Gold an amazing achievement.
There is nothing more satisfying than growing and eating fresh produce. Sharing plants is a great way to fill your garden. Come and learn more with us.
Getting together on the 3rd Thursday of the months between September - May with our Speakers for illustrated talks and demonstrations.
