It might be cold now, but spring is just around the corner and July Snippets is coming into bud with spring activities. Keep your diary free for our Spring Celebration, enjoy our garden’s blooms and get ideas for your garden at a camelia show. In line with the season of growth, our “Appy” Hour team is growing so watch out for changed times.

Enjoying our garden

Our wonderful garden continues to provide delights even in this cold weather. If you were lucky enough to be in the lunch area on Friday 25 July, you could have received a bunch of spinach or a potted viola to enjoy.
Well done, gardeners!
