Milwich & District Produce Guild
Our June meeting was an enjoyable evening visit to Lichfield Garden Centre, which opened up specially for us. There were twenty four of us, and we were treated to an escorted tour of the Garden Centre, with tea/coffee and cakes with the proprietor, who made sure everyone left with good quality plants, (We didn’t mean to spend that much, -really,- but what can you do?)
The Summer Event on July 4th was set in the beautiful garden of Ivy Cottage. This turned out to be a very enjoyable occasion, with members basking in the warm sunshine, good food, drink, and good company.
On August 27th Guild members will visit Birch Trees Garden, in Eccleshall, run by Susan & John Weston, who came to talk to us previously.
