A warm welcome awaits
We would love to see you and you would get a warm welcome. There is no charge for first time visitors.
We are gardeners of all abilities. The club meets every 3rd Wednesday, entrance fee is £1 and usually 50p for refreshments. The membership fee is £10 per annum. We have a variety of Speakers covering all aspects of gardening, we also sell plants when available and have a raffle.
March/April we have a Spring Flowers evening when the members bring in flowers from their gardens according to a schedule, from tulips and daffodils to hellebores and primroses. These are judged by the members themselves and is very light hearted. This year we will be launching our new name and inviting non members along to meet us and maybe bring a pot or bunch of flowers for our visitors table.In July we have the members table show which again is according to the schedule and covers a wide range of flowers and vegetables plus flower
arranging. This is judged independently and winners are awarded Trophies.
August is the main show which is open to the public and is held at Carlton Colville Community Centre. This runs for 2 days and there are many different classes including, floral art, handicrafts and photography. Tea/ coffee and homemade cakes are available for the public to purchase. There is a different judge for each class and winners receive a small monetary prize plus the presentation of a Trophy. These are presented at The AGM.
In January we have a social evening when refreshments are provided.
All meetings are held at: St Lukes Church, Homefield Avenue, Lowestoft, NR33 9BX.
In certain circumstances it may be possible to provide transport, depending on where the member lives.
