Stalmine & District Gardening Club
We are a group whose interest is learning and sharing information about gardening. We meet once a month usually on the first Thursday in the month at Stalmine Village Hall at 8pm. Most meeting we have a speaker who tries to impart their knowledge and enthusiasm on us. On other occasions we may arrange a visit to other gardens or places of interest to us.
The Gardening Club started in 2000 and usually has about 20 members at the meetings. We are not experts but try to share any knowledge we have. We do not have an annual membership charge but charge £2 per meeting to cover the cost of the speaker and room hire. Tea and biscuits are provided and we normally hold a raffle.
These are our planned meetings this year.
