WHAS NEWS: April 2021
TRADING HUT REOPENING
The Trading Hut has been doing a very brisk trade since reopening in March and we have now completely sold out of shallots and all varieties of seed potatoes. However, we do have some red and yellow onion sets still available for spring planting and now that the soil is warming up it's the ideal time to get them into the ground or into plugs to outwit the birds. The same arrangements for social distancing will be in place as were used last year to keep everyone safe. Please cooperate with these to enable us to keep the Hut in operation.
On-going Covid Restrictions
As you are no doubt aware the committee had to take the necessary decision to cancel all WHAS events planned for 2020 due to the difficulties presented by the pandemic.
However, after a successful AGM held via Zoom we are pleased to say that our first talk of the year will be taking place on April 20th, again via Zoom. See below for details of what promises to be a very useful and interesting talk.
