Heighington And District Gardening Club

Anyone can join the club, the fee is £2 per household per annum.

Monthly meetings are on the fourth Thursday of the month at 8 p.m. in the Jubilee Hall.

Entrance to each meeting is £1 per person for members, or £1.50 for non-members. Entrance fee also includes tea/coffee and biscuits. There is also a raffle at 50p for five tickets.

At our monthly meetings we have a plant table, information table and a notice board with details of forthcoming events and open days, etc.

We are able to offer club members discounted garden products from our Store Shed, which is situated behind the Butcher and Beast on the High Street. We try to open the shed most Saturdays between 10.30-11.30 a.m., throughout the season, but if members do need things in between times, just phone one of the Committee Members.
