Exbury Gardens Head Gardener, Tom Clarke, who presented on ‘The Challenges of Managing a Historic Woodland Garden in our Changing Climate’ was an extremely engaging speaker and the photos were fantastic! Everyone who attended really enjoyed it.

More recently, Mary Payne MBE spoke eloquently on Compton Acres - who knew about the challenges of gardening on a sandy soil with so much tree cover?! Again, the photos and the information were amazing!

The next Zoom presentation will be on Thursday, 13th March starting at 6pm (please log on a little earlier so that we can start promptly)
