We will try and returnto our standard get-togethers are on the secondThursday of the month and the last Tuesday of themonth, but we might make it a bit more often,

depending on the demand.

join the list - send me a text with the words ‘crop list’ to0872048045.Next meetings are:11 August - Thursday Night30 August - Tuesday Night
