News from Laverstock Gardening Club
We celebrate the start of another busy year at the Club with
our usual New Year Party on January 28 th . There will be food
and wine and a chance to catch up with old friends.
February 25 th sees the launch of our programme for the coming year. The annual
subscription falls due – now £6 and still very good value.
The speaker at the February meeting will be garden historian Christine Stones.
She will be talking about “Gardens of World War One”. As in the Second World
War, there were food shortages and home grown fruit and vegetables became
increasingly important to keep the population fed. With the men away fighting,
it was the women who grew those urgently needed crops.
The monthly competition will be “three stems of hellebores”.
Laverstock Gardening Club meets at 7.30 on the fourth Monday of the month in
Laverstock and Ford Village Hall. Visitors are welcome.
