Shows (This year we plan to have our annual show on 31st August)
Shows provide the opportunity for those with a wide range of talents to demonstrate their skills with classes covering flowers, fruit, vegetables, cookery, floral arrangement, photography and handicrafts. If you have never exhibited before then there are novice classes plus a range of children’s classes. There is a small fee of 20p per entry, children’s classes are free. Shows are held at St. Martin’s Junior School, Ashley Road, Epsom, KT18 7AD. Opening to the public from 2.00 - 4.30pm, entry is £1 for members, £2 for non-members. In addition there are plants for sale, refreshments and a raffle. For more details contact Cathy Flitter.
The Epsom Garden Flower Club closed in December 2015, but there is still a Flower Arrangement section of the garden society. Follow the link for details.
Monthly Meetings with Guest Speaker
Most meetings will be in the mornings at Epsom Sports Club on the third week of the month, sometimes with flower displays. Topics range over the whole field of gardening, including design, cultivation, conservation and wild life. Speakers are acknowledged experts in their fields and talks are usually illustrated with slides. There is a small entry fee of £2 (£3 for non-members) for which you also get refreshments and entry to a raffle (see events calendar for full details of this year’s programme). The November meeting is our AGM and the December meeting will be a social event.
The Outings & Open Gardens Group
If you enjoy visiting gardens and would like the opportunity to gain advice and ideas in a relaxed informal atmosphere then this is the group for you. Each year a small number of members open their gardens for viewing, providing an excellent opportunity to see what grows well in a variety of soils and situations. Members also exchange plants and seeds.
During the year visits are organised to other gardens of interest. Full details of all outings/visits and booking arrangements are published in the newsletter.For more details contact Sue Glover.
