Details of meetings are on the What’s on page of this site. There are also outings to gardens in the summer. Are you looking for a friendly, active Gardening Club….then read on… Wroxton and Drayton Gardening Club has been in existence for many many years but still has an active and interested membership. We meet at 7pm on the second Monday in the month at Wroxton Village Hall. We have a speaker for each meeting with a variation of topics that will be of interest to any Gardner beginner or expert alike. We normally meet from October through to April with the summer off to tend our own gardens. But during the summer months we normally have two half day trips and one day trip to some garden of interest. We keep our membership fee low at £12 for the year but in order to subsidize this we are very active in fundraising in a very sociable low key manner with a Strawberry Tea a coffee morning and a Christmas Party. We have been complimented on many occasions on the friendliness of the club members and we would like to invite you to come along to any of our meetings and see if it suits what you would like to do…you will be made very welcome. Details of the meetings are posted on the Wroxton Website but also if you become a member you will have a full printed programme with all the information on. If you would like to speak to someone first then please call Mo on 07766246798 for more information.
