Holcombe Brook and Summerseat WI

Following our AGM at the beginning of the October meeting, we were joined by representatives of Althams travel agency who delivered a fascinating presentation about Canada.

Deborah McCallum showed us how to get the most out of hanging baskets and containers. Her ideas on how to ensure we have colour and foliage through the autumn and winter months were especially interesting.  Members then decorated tin cans and planted bulbs in the hope of seeing some early Spring colour. We were also visited by representatives of Stoneclough WI as part of their 70 th  anniversary preparations. Finally, Karen Clark spoke to the group about the taster course she had enjoyed at Denman and encouraged us to avail of this marvellous facility.
