Palgrave Gardening and Social Group was formed about a year ago
and now we have more than 20 active members. We usually meet at
10.15am on the first Monday of the month. In the winter we assemble
in members' homes and generally invite a speaker but in the summer,
where possible, we visit a garden or one of the excellent
specialist nurseries that abound in the area. If you live in
Palgrave and would like to know more, we should be delighted to
hear from you. Please ring Sheila (643393) or Janet (650622)
Spring and summer activities 2010
In March we had a most enjoyable outing to Gable House at
Redisham. There, on a brilliantly sunny but cold day, we explored a
spring garden bursting with snowdrops, aconites, cyclamen and
hellebores.
We have local speakers booked for April and May but in June we
are visiting Fernatix, a fern nursery at Stoke Ash.
On Thursday 9th September the Group is going by coach
to London to visit the gardens and state rooms at Buckingham
Palace. There is now a short waiting list for the Palace visit but
there may be a few places available on the coach for people wanting
to visit London. Enquiries in both cases to Sheila True
