Dear Plot Holders
1) First. A Huge Thank You To all those ( Ian, Garry, Eugene, John, Esther, Tom, Jill, Mary, Sean and Annie-do write in if you think I've missed anyone) for pitching up on a wet Sunday 26th Aug. and helping with the next stage of clearing of Plot 15. We'll warn everyone of the date of the big bonfire which, of course, will be after 30th September.
2) Harvest Fair/lunch/get together in front of trading shed.
Saturday 22nd September starting at 1pm.
For plot holders, their families and friends.
- It's a 'pot luck' event so bring a dish to share.
- Please bring your own plate, cutlery and chair. We will provide tables under gazebos. We'll also provide teas, coffees and juices
There'll also be
- A Produce Stall* selling cakes, allotment produce and preserves. Please donate what you can to that.
- A Raffle * please bring donations for this to the trading shed during Sunday openings on 9th and 16th.
- A Seed and Plant Swap stall. So bring what you have for that. No money changes hands on this stall.
- Perhaps a surprise guest speaker??
*Proceeds from these will go to support general allotment projects.
3) Someone has deposited a number of large sacks full of soil inside the Wood Vale entrance. Its been there a while. Could the person responsible please remove it.
And while we're on this subject, can we remind EVERYONE again that if you are to have a sizeable delivery to the Site you must contact the Committee before hand to avoid clash of dates.
4) Excess fruit and veg?
Gary welcomes your excess fruit, veg and flowers for his stall in the Sunday farmers market where he raises money for the Harington Scheme. If you have any excess to spare please leave it on a Friday or Saturday at his plot 108b, or call him on 07899022455
5) 2018 AGM of the Shepherds Hill Allotments Association will be held upstairs at the Victoria Stakes pub on 15th November at 7pm.
All most welcome. We'll keep you posted and send out paperwork in October.
Yours
Julie, Annie, Trevor, Julia, Lynn, Juliet, Gary, Esther and Ian
