Not long to go until next Thursday’s workshop here at Church Farm: Pruning Masterclass, taught by the amazing Zac Graham. Learn how to prune properly, from roses & fruit trees to wisteria. July, rather than January, is the perfect time to prepare plants for the next year. This is a practical demonstration led by renowned expert Zac Graham, and members will be able to try their hand, too. Confidence-building is crucial, as is what we call the Insurance Policy for Pruning. Thursday 18th July 10-12 https://www.talkgarden.org/event-details/pruning-masterclass-1

Not long to go until this Thursday morning’s Wildflowers in the Garden workshop with the brilliant teacher Ian Tribe. Join us for a fascinating slideshow and walk around the garden at Church Farm, Ryme Intrinseca. There will also be good coffee, tea and cake. We have several thousand wildflower species, most endangered one way and another: they need saving and gardens can play a big part here. We will look at those that are compatible with gardening and the benefits they offer to garden wildlife. To book contact [email protected], or go to www.talkgarden.org to book online

When your hens can’t bear to be left out. Probably feeling peckish for a slice of the homemade cake we serve mid-morning with fresh coffee.
