FLOWER SHOW 2023

The flower show took place on June 7th, 2023. We had 189 entries from 21 members. Averaging 9 entries per person. The turn out was awesome and the speaker Anna Leggatt, who spoke on "Shade Gardesn", was knowledgeable and gave the audince many new tips. Catherine Mcgill judged the show (even though it was her birthday) and was pleased with our show and gave us hints on how to improve. Refeshments were offered both before and after the meeting.
