Topic: Open Day

[saddad]

Hello to all and Sundry,

I am treasurer of a private site Littleover Lane Allotments Derby we are just off the Ring Road A511 near Normanton Park, not the ones you drive past on the ring road but very near POSTCODE DE23 6JH for those who use sites like Multimap..

Over the last few years we have built up a museum of Horticulture and a school visits centre, we also have facilities that are used by L Cheshire and Wetherby Day centre. We have Disabled Access and Toilets etc... and received a special mention in the East Midlands in Bloom award.

We are opening on Sunday 4th June 10:00am to 4:00pm for the NGS (Yellow Book) Charities Entry £2 and £1... if any body is interested please come along. We can do private visits any evening and are open Wed and Sun 2-4:30 if you want to come along. Will be open again for NGS in early Sept,  Sunday the third.

Thanks!
 :)

I was busy at Nottingham's Green Festival today but I'll be PMing you in due course to arrange an evening visit on behalf of Nottingham Organic Gardeners Society.

Excellent, I look forward to hearing from you Dj, we have a group of 40 ish coming across from Swadlincote this Thursday and a group from Rugely have expressed an interest. It went well we took over £450, £200 on the gate for NGS and another £120 for Breast Cancer. The only spoiler was someone helped themselves to some Fuschias from one of the show plots... it might not have been a guest, I have had snowdrops dug up from a shady bit I was trying to naturalise two years running!
