Overstrand Gardening Club
The OVERSTRAND GARDENING CLUB was formed in 2000. The object of the club is to provide those interested in gardening with a chance to expand their interest, get answers to horticultural questions, meet like-minded people and enjoy social occasions together.
Meetings are held on the first Tuesday in the month at 2.30 p.m.
Refreshments are served.
ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP is £3 with a meeting fee of £1 for members and £1.50 for visitors. If funds permit it is intended that some events will be for members only and will be subsidised from club funds. We normally have a plant stall at most meetings.
There is an extensive library of gardening books available for members to borrow.
A very warm welcome to come along to the meetings is extended to all prospective members or visitors.
All meetings are held in the Parish Hall in Overstrand and members are charged a £1 meeting fee. Visitors are charged £1.50. The annual membership fee is £3.
Our 2011 Programme is shown below and further details may be obtained from any of our officers.
