Lydford and District Gardening Club was established in 2004 and therefore celebrates 20 years in 2024! Of the original 24 members there are 8 who continue to be active members.
The club hosts a variety of meetings covering a wide range of gardening topics including gardening without plastic, companion planting, wildlife gardening, designing a border and soil structure.
The meetings are an opportunity to share stories of success and failure, exchange gardeners' tales, and to swap seeds and produce. There is the chance to learn new skills for both the novice and experienced gardener.
Gardening is medicine that doesn't need a PRESCRIPTION and has no limit on DOSAGE!
