FORTHCOMING VISITS

EVENING VISIT TO ACORN FARM

On the evening of Friday 27th June we are visiting the home of Andrew Parsons, the speaker who gave an excellent talk ‘Farming with Wildlife’ earlier this spring.  We are meeting at 6.30pm at Village Hall to share transport or 7pm at the farm at Sutton on Trent.  NG23 6RT (www.acornfarmvisits.co.uk).

COACH TRIP TO EASTON WALLED GARDEN

On Sunday 13th July, we are heading 40 minutes down the A1 to see the stunning sweet peas and wander around the beautiful grounds at Easton Walled Garden (www.eastonwalledgardens.co.uk).  We will be leaving from Lowdham at approximately 10am and travelling there by coach, where we can spend time visiting the gardens, relaxing with a picnic or enjoying a spot of lunch in their café!

All are welcome and the cost of the trip is £12 to members and £16 to non members.  This price covers both the transport and entry to the gardens.  We are hoping keeping our fingers crossed for a lovely sunny day.

If you would like more details or to join either visit, don’t hesitate to contact me via the website or 9665201

Thank you to everyone who contributed in any way towards the plant sale today – growing and donating plants, selling and buying.

It was a great success.  We had the most plants that we have ever had to sell and lots of happy customers, who can be seen enjoying the lovely weather. The summer bedding plants, vegetable plants, herbs, shrubs and perennials were of high quality.

Scarecrow Competition

This Bank Holiday Monday we will holding a Scarecrow Trail as part of Lowdham’s  May Day Celebrations.  Lowdham residents and businesses have been invited to enter scarecrows on a music theme this year.  The scarecrows will be judged on the Sunday and left out for viewing on the Monday.  A Scarecrow Trail will be available for people to follow, so they know where they can see them.  The trail can be picked up from the Village Hall,  where there is May Day Afternoon Tea and stalls from 1.30 to 4.30pm. Trails are also available by emailing the Society.
