It’s that time of the year when we hold the Garden’s Annual General Meeting (AGM).
The AGM will be held on Tuesday 22/2/2022 at 6.30pm, COVID/weather permitting a simple sausage sizzle to be provided at the garden from 6pm.
Creation of 2022 Committee
Part of the AGM will be the election of a new committee for 2022. We encourage all garden members to consider nominating for one of these roles. It’s a great way to volunteer in your local community.
