A mixture of husbandry and craft meetings is planned, with a bias this year towards crafts, based on the requests of our members. Some members have found it difficult to attend all-day meetings on Saturdays, so we are holding some sessions on other days of the week, and/or via Zoom rather than in person.
The regular shows are also included, though these may of course be cancelled by the organisers or held in a revised form.
Zoom links or precise address details are circulated to members before each meeting.
If you would like to be involved, or need more details, do
contact us!
