Monthly Outings
Our first day out of the season took had to be rescheduled from March 27th until April 10th to the Old Railway Line Garden Centre at Three Cocks, Brecon. Although the weather started off poor, the sun soon came out and stayed with us all day.
We were a party small in number, but never the less, everyone who went thoroughly enjoyed themselves and are looking to the next day out.
We provide random day outings as suggested by our users, and in the past have been to various garden centres, and open gardens such as the Water Gardens at Pembroke, Elan Valley, Tenby and the Walled Gardens at Presteigne, home to Dame Margaret Anstee. Again, please make contact with Laura or Ann with your suggestions or for information about any planned outings already arranged.
