A reminder that overwintering onions and garlic are on sale in our new shop on the Scarcroft site for planting out in the next month or so. There are also broad beans which can be planted now and many other gardening products
The shop will close for the winter break on Sunday 8th December. At 11 a.m. on that day, we'll be holding our usual end of season social with mulled wine and seasonal snacks - all members and friends welcome!
The shop will re-open on Saturday 8th February 2025, by which time we should have received seed potatoes for sale. We hope to arrange a social event to celebrate the opening of the new shop on that day - details nearer the time...
Over the next month or so, we hope to clear the wood from the old hut that is alongside the path at the bottom of the site. This includes sections of the old floor and joists that could be cut up and used for building or repairing fences or compost boxes etc. on plots. There are also the old roof trusses, which are likewise good, sound, wood with many potential uses. There is some of the old cladding, which is weather proofed and excellent for repairs or light construction. If members have uses for this and any other timber there, they should please help themselves as soon as possible. Any donations to the association if appropriate will be gratefully received!
Regards,
your Association Committee
