Should grow into lovely plants, I’ve included a pic of the ones we potted up a couple of weeks back.
The last remaining annuals will be on sale for the next fortnight. Come and save them from their fate in the compost bin! To date you have helped PDHS raise over £200 which in turn will be used to support other groups and societies in the village.
A lovely sunny summer’s afternoon saw another very successful Parwich Open Gardens. Our many visitors, who’d travelled from near and far were full of compliments for the gardens and the warm welcome they received. Thank you so much to everyone in helping to make this such a special day in the village calendar which once again has raised several thousand pounds that we shall be able to share among other Parwich clubs and organisations.
Many thanks too to John L for his fantastic photos that have captured the day perfectly.
Plants are once again for sale outside Rookery House.
You will find divisions and seeds from our gardens, from the common to the slightly more unusual, yours for a fraction of the price you would pay in a garden centre, grown using peat free compost to protect our environment.
Sold in aid of Parwich and District Horticultural Society, enabling us in turn to support other village societies annually.

The apples on my apple tree ripen a bit later than others and I now have plenty. They are better as cookers but not bad as an eating apple either. I have put a box at the bottom of the drive. Please help yourself. Bring your own bags.
Thanks so much to everyone who supported Sunday’s apple pressing. To Parwich British Legion for hosting, to all those who brought along their apples, to the enthusiastic mashers and pressers, and last, but not least, to John H for supplying the equipment and overseeing what was a great village community event.
If you would like any apples please contact Ruth or Chris L on 517. Apples will be available to be picked from next weekend onwards. Please bring your own bag. A donation for Diabetes UK would be much appreciated.
On the gravel at the entrance to Church Farm in Creamery Lane is a number of plants, herbaceous plants, wild flowers and shrubs, in need of a home. Please help yourself.
Everything must go, especially as my goddaughter returns to get her car on Sunday and the plants are currently blocking it in. Also there are lots of plastic plant pots in the large builders merchant back if they are any use to anyone.
Knock on the door if you want to know what the plants are.
