Our November meeting held at the Grenfell Country Club was well attended.
After routine matters were dealt with, members who attended the South-West New South Wales Zone Friendship Day Lunch, held at Clifford Gardens, provided the following report:
The Friendship Day Lunch was organised by Garden Clubs of Australia (CGA) and hosted by Young Garden Clubs. Eight members represented our Club.
The weather was lovely, and we had plenty of time before the buffet lunch of roasts and vegetables to walk around the extensive grounds and admire the beautiful garden beds and magnificent views of the countryside.
We also, of course, took the opportunity to buy plants from their plant table. Sue Mowie, Zone Co-ordinator from GCA, gave a talk on the work that GCA does.
