THE society started off the new year with a visit to Hurrans Nursery in Burcot where radio BBC Hereford and Worcester's gardening guru Reg Moule gave an entertaining and informative talk on winter shrubs and new and unusual vegetables for the forthcoming season.

Free coffee and biscuits were provided along with the opportunity to shop with generous discounts.

The next meeting will be held on February 13 at the White Hart at 7.30pm there will be a speaker talking about dahlias.

New members are always welcome and regular meetings are held on the second Monday of each month.
