A review by Maggie Sugden

We had a very enjoyable evening at the August plant forum.

It was just like old times, as we haven’t been able to meet for a forum in the hall for such a long time, so I just thought it might be an idea to inform the new members and remind the old ones about what goes on there!

Any member can bring a bunch of flowers, greenery or plants in pots that are looking good at that time and we take turns to talk to the group about them. We learn a lot about different plants and have an informative evening asking questions and getting tips on growing.

It is a great opportunity for members to talk and get to know each other.

Before the Covid lockdowns, we would have lots of members bringing material and it was always a very interesting evening.

On Friday there weren’t many there as I don’t think a lot of people knew what to expect. However the twenty or so who attended all enjoyed it and there was a lot of talking and asking questions. We learnt a lot and everyone joined in.

I do hope we keep these evenings in the programme.
