Action Day

Please do come and help out at the Station this Sunday. You’ll be more than welcome, and it’s a great opportunity to make new friends, have fun gardening and get some fresh air and exercise, as well as making a contribution to our local community.!

Safety bibs will be provided, but we would kindly ask that you bring your own gardening equipment and gloves, as we currently have no permanent storage facilities.

Come for as long or as little as you like, and do whatever makes you happy!

We will be putting in place a plaque to remember Cyril Caulkin, who was the first Chair of FoGS and worked tirelessly to promote our Group and the Station.
