Garden Group
The Garden Group was formed in late 2008 with the aim of discussing issues relevant to our gardens, and to visiting well-known gardens in the area. Meetings are held on the 2nd Tuesday of the month, with some additional visits during the summer months.
Talks will be held in the Community Care Centre in Stokesley Town Close (above the Library) starting at 10.30 unless otherwise stated.
The programme of events for 2011/2012 is given below. This is a draft programme as not all the visits and speakers have been confirmed. For most of the visits a coach will be arranged but booking will have to be confirmed a month before the outing with a non-refundable deposit. Please keep an eye on the website and the Garden Group notice board at the monthly meetings.
