WHAS NEWS: June 2023
We are now restocked with compost at the Hut and have plenty of both Sylvagrow peat-free and a new Sinclair peat-free compost. See the Trading Hut page for prices.
Many thanks to all those who came along to the May Plant Sale at the Trading Hut, either to donate or buy plants. All proceeds will help WHAS to continue its programme of events, including the 2023 Annual Show.
**************************************************
We would very much like to thank Caroline from WCC for an extremely enjoyable and informative talk this month about Home Composting. We were all reassured that making our own compost is the greenest way to manage our garden waste and I'm sure, learned a few new facts that we didn't know about how our household waste is managed in Warwickshire. Click here to find out about some very good offers on compost bins for Warwickshire residents.
**************************************************
On Friday May 19th approximately 30 WHAS members enjoyed a warm and sunny guided tour of the gardens at Baddesly Clinton. We all thoroughly enjoyed the day and of course, NT tea and cake afterwards. Many thanks to Head Gardener Lucy and her able team for being so accommodating and for answering our many questions so expertly.
