  • Length of course: 3 terms. Autumn (3 Weeks), Spring (3 Weeks), Summer (7 Weeks)
  • Number of places: 40

  • Description:

    Whether you are experienced or new to gardening, this group is for keen gardeners. We meet monthly usually on the third Friday from September, then fortnightly from May to July. We visit each other's gardens, share our experiences, discuss current jobs and any other perennial problems. Quite a few of these gardens may be in villages outside Cambridge. We share cars where possible. It does not matter how large/small your garden is, how developed, or how blank a canvas. You don't have to host a meeting if you don't want to. We shall again be dividing the class into four sub-groups; we will allocate these early in September and then send you the relevant information, and where the first meeting will be. This first session will be on Friday 27 September when we will lay a plan for the rest of season.

  • Format: Discussion

  • Leader: Gillian Perkins
  • We are four plantaholics, or more politely, committed untrained gardeners who love to share ideas with others and constantly strive to improve our gardens.
