WHAS NEWS: July 2024
Thanks to all those who came on our Annual Trip which this year was to Chatsworth House and Gardens. Although the weather was a little chilly we all enjoyed the visit very much. If you have any suggestions for future trips within an approximate 2 hour bus ride, please speak to one of the committee or drop us an email.

Our next talk on Tuesday 16th of July is from Mike Sheldon of Hill Close Gardens, who will talk to us about the History & Development of these iconic Warwick gardens.

Our recent visit to Garden Organic at Ryton-on-Dunsmore was a wonderful, informative morning, with tours of both the Organic Demonstration Garden and Heritage Seed Library. Very many thanks to Emma and Catrina for their expert guidance of both these areas and to Ross for arranging the visit for us.
