AT the June meeting, there was an interesting talk by Dave Bates on the growing and showing of prize vegetables.

Surely only men could find it worthwhile to spend weeks growing a five inch long parsnip of which only two inches are edible, and they are completely tasteless!

The August meeting will be on the 14th, 7.40pm in the garden room at Steps and will be to discuss arrangements and allocate tasks for the show on September 16 (members please note change of date). Schedules are now available from Steve on 455248.

Please support the show in any way you can as all the proceeds this year are for the County Air Ambulance.

Will all members who won trophies last year please bring them to the August meeting.
