This year our Summer Social will be held at Dale Farm, Sandy Lane, Dereham, Norfolk NR19 2EA, home of Graham & Sally Watts.
We will not be providing catering, but instead you may bring your own picnic/drinks. A welcome drink of Pimms or soft drink will be provided on arrival. There are seats around the garden but if it should rain there are places where we can seek shelter. There are toilet facilities.
This is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy this 2-acre plant lovers’ garden with over 1,000 plant varieties and wonderfully packed planted borders and sculptures. This is all complimented with vegetable, gravel and waterside gardens, including a spring-fed pond. Collection of 150 hydrangeas.
This must be pre-booked and paid for in advance using the reply slip below. Payment can be made by cheque or BACs. BACs payment: A/c name – Hardy Plant Society Norfolk and Suffolk Group. Sort code 20-99-21. A/c no. 50039497. Enter SumSoc26 and your surname. If paying by BACs please let me know by email (This email address is being protected from spambots.
