FORTHCOMING VISITS

We still have a few spaces left on our next coach trip

On Sunday 12th June, we will be visiting Scampston Walled Garden near Malton in Yorkshire. It is reputed to be is a stunningly beautiful contemporary garden, quite unlike any other. Designed by the renowned Dutch plantsman, Piet Oudolf, and featuring modern, perennial meadow planting alongside more traditional areas, which is said to be one of the most exciting survivals of the great age of Victorian gardening.  There is a tea room, shop and plant centre too.

On the day we are visiting there is also a Vintage Fair held in the surrounding parkland, which we will have complimentary access into.  The cost of the trip is very reasonable at £14 for members and £18 for non-members (this includes transport and entry into the garden).  It would be great to take a coach full and all are welcome.

We have also organised our first evening trip for this summer.  We are visiting Southwell Flower Pod as a follow up to the interesting talk that we had about it February.  We are visiting on Thursday 30th June at 7pm.  The evening visit will last approx 2 hours and we will be served with refreshments too.  The cost will be subsidised by the society at £3 per person for members and £5 for non-members.  I do need numbers and payment beforehand please.
