GardenEyes

Gardeneyes

An enthusiastic group created and run by visually impaired gardeners who want to keep their fingers green.

There are regular meetings with events, garden and nursery visits and talks throughout the year with a Horticutural show in the autumn. The meetings cover all aspects of gardening, from A for Artichoke to Y for Yarrow (couldn't think of one for Z! - can you?).

Most of all the members offer each other the kind of help money just can't buy. Support with ideas, ways of enjoying your gardening, tips and tricks and the chance to chat with people who understand because they have been there.

So if you are a gardener with newly failing sight or you would like to share your experiences with others you would be most welcome to join us. The meetings are very informal, just give Jenny a call and then pop along.
