The big one for us this year is the return of open gardens.
This will be our first open gardens since the pandemic shut everything down so if
you’re happy to open your garden or be involved in any other way please let us
know.
If you haven’t already you should very shortly be getting a flyer through your door
about the event and how to get involved. There will be lots of work to be done
but there will also be an opportunity to all get together and share a meal to
celebrate what WILL be another great opportunity to come together as a
community and help to secure the future of our village hall. Thank you in advance
for all pulling together and ensuring a successful open gardens.
