Harvest Forum 2018

 

This year our Harvest Forum took the theme of Brexit Bash and members brought typical foods from the EU member countries which we washed down with a very British cup of tea.  Political debate was not encouraged!

 

 

 

 We also had the annual Bring & Buy to boost our funds

Both events were a great success.

Display Table:

Kate still has lots of colour in her garden.  She brought the grass hakonechloa, Hesperantha, Callicarpa, Astrantia Buckland, Penstemon, Mahonia Charity, Salvia, Verbena rigida, Geranium, Rosa Max Graf, Echibeckia Summerina

 

Eileen's succulent brought for indentification

Gerry read an amusing poem

called the Master and the Man as head gardeners on grand estates did all the work and received none of the credit.

Gardening Matters

I just love the way Alison describes her garden on her blog https://themindfulgardener.blog/2018/11/16/twinkle-twinkle/
