Four Border Abbeys

Gardening Group 1

Group Leader: Prue Pullen

Meets: Various days in each month from Spring to Autumn

Venue: Various gardens in the Lothians, Borders and Northumberland.

Accessibility: Limited accessibility - please check with Group Leader as some venues may have steps and/or uneven paths.

This group is currently FULL.

The purpose of the group is to share our love of gardening and plants, to visit various gardens and to socialise.

There is not a fixed week per month as this depends on when gardens are at their peak and to suit our hosts.

The gardening group programme runs from Spring to Autumn, mainly comprising garden visits. Talks and demonstrations are also held. Ideas for speakers or visits are welcome.
