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.

Many thanks from PDHS

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.

Courgette Plants?

Does any one have, or is anyone likely to have, any spare courgette plants that I could buy?

Cheers, Emma (203)

Anyone for Apples?

More apples  …

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.

Free Plants

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.
