Gardening Group
We are an interest group of those who enjoy gardens and gardening. We are not experts, but are keen to learn, keen to share and keen to enjoy the company of others who share our interest.
Meetings take place by zoom (over the winter) and at various venues. Meeting time is 11am, unless otherwise stated. Meetings include time for sharing what we are doing in our own gardens and general garden chat. We also enjoy garden visits.
New members will be made very welcome.

Garden Visits Programme 2023
The gardening group would be very happy to have the company of any Dundee u3a member on our garden visits programme. Join us for all the visits or just one that takes your fancy.
If there are facilities at a garden we usually stop for a coffee after our garden visit.
Please notify either una.milne@btinternet.com or robertrballantine@yahoo.co.uk of your intention to join the visit, so that we don’t go without you.
