Dear Friends
Just to remind you our next Working Bee will be next Saturday 15th July at 1pm. Meet at the Pavillion. Jeremy has trays of plants to plant so please bring gloves, a trowel,
a teaspoon (to get plants out of trays) and if you have them. Overtrousers since you will kneeling on wet ground. If you don't have overtrousers maybe bring something to kneel on. You will need gumboots since ground is very wet.
If we have to cancel due to bad weather I will email you latest Saturday morning but earlier if a decision can be made sooner.
Hope you can make it.
All the best
Linda
