Village Produce and Garden Guild

Stowe Village Produce Guild – Garden Guild

We held our AGM in February. Betty Stainsby and Jeanette Phillips stood down from the committee. Dawn Franks and Lois Cocker were elected to join Shane Phillips, Kath Sargeant, Dave and Rose Jones, David Bloor and Susanna Munro. 

The monthly competition winners were: Pot Plant – Em Horton. Flower Arrangement – Rose Jones. Vegetables – David Bloor. The Annual Bulb cup won by Susanna Munro. 

Following the business of the evening we were entranced by one of our members, Russell Heath telling us about Bonsai. Ably assisted by his wife Sarah he had brought at least 20 plants with him and talked us through their cultivation and the tools needed to look after them. Much appreciated talk.

Next meeting:   On 16th April our speaker will be Justin Harrison on Spring Awakening and on 21st May Mike Poultney will talk on “Composting”.

We meet at 7-30pm every third Wednesday of the month with guest speakers, competitions, refreshments and a sales table.

Visitors are always welcome.
