WHAS NEWS: June 2026
Many thanks to Diana Sandercock of Heart of England Organics for an interesting and illuminating talk about organic growing methods. Even seasoned growers can always learn something new!
Our next talk on July 21st is Planting for Year Round Colour from Sarah Ridgway of Hinton’s Nursery.

Many thanks to all our members who supported the May Plant Sale, either by donating or buying plants. It was once again a successful sale and raised valuable funds to be put towards our activities.
******************************************************************
Thanks to one of our members, we have secured a 10% discount at Avondale Nursery and Library Garden in Baginton, CV8 3AG. (Located behind Russell's Nursery). I’m sure you will agree that this is a welcome addition to our range of perks. The opening times vary throughout the year so check the website http://www.avondalenursery.co.uk before you visit. A valid membership card will need to be shown.
