The Stilton Gardening Club meets on the third Tuesday of every month at the Church Meeting Room at 7:30pm - check the Diary for details.
A presentation is usually provided by a guest speaker, and recent topics have included "The Gardens at Hemingford Manor", "Rare and Different Bulbs", and "Fuschias".
Occasional trips to local gardens are also planned, including the gardens at Hemingford Manor. Sometimes we travel further afield - for example, Kew Gardens. Please contact Olive on 241206 for more details.

Every summer the club runs the Open Gardens event, and judges the Best Kept Garden Competition for The Gawler Trophy, in memory of Stan Gawler. The rules are:

  1. The judges will be looking for a tidy garden - ornamental, vegetable, or a mixture
  2. Judging will take place during the month of July
  3. The judge will be the previous year's winner
  4. A winner cannot enter the next years competition
  5. Practising professional gardeners cannot enter
  6. The Judge's decision will be final
  7. The Competition is open to all residents of Stilton, Folksworth, Denton, Caldecote and Morborne
  8. The Competition is open to all age groups. Special junior prizes can be awarded at the judge's discretion

If you would like to enter your garden, or that of a friend or neighbour, please contact Olive Main (241206)
