A few days after the successful Wimborne Gardening Club Spring Show, Members met for the April Monthly Meeting when they were entertained by Sarah Le Clef, a former Professional Flower Arranger, on arranging flowers. Sarah arranged three displays of different styles, which were then raffled to raise funds for the Gardening Club.
The May Meeting, which will be held on Monday, 12th May (as the first Monday is a Bank Holiday) at the usual time of 7.30 pm in St Catherine’s Church Hall, Rodways Corner, Wimborne. The Speaker will be Mary van Coller, who is the author of ‘Downstream Dorset, River Tales and Local History’, a colourful journey of discovery through the beautiful County of Dorset, including fascinating anecdotes, the meaning of place names and historical events. This is the subject of her talk, and it is sure to inspire the listeners to go and discover parts of Dorset they may not have seen before.
There will also be a plant swap at the May meeting, so members are encouraged to bring along plants to take part.
A week after the May Meeting is the Club’s Coach outing to Exbury Gardens. There are still seats left on the Coach. For full details,s look at the club’s website www.wimbornegardeningclub.co.uk
