Linton-On-Ouse Gardening
Club

The
club meets on the last Friday each month in Linton On Ouse Village
Hall at 7:30 p.m. except in November and December when it is usually
the third Friday. Guest speakers are booked for the majority of
meetings and are
usually speakers of good quality that provide an interesting evening.
Visitors are welcome at the meeting although a very small charge is
made. Annual membership of the club is a very modest £5.00
per
year and worth every penny. Each year there is usually a coach trip
with a garden theme,last year the visit was to Sowerby Hall
Bridlington. Through the year a few competitions are
planned.
