| Anniversary And/Or Other Special Events | During 2025 we held our annual plant sale and once again, it was a great success and widely supported by the community. In February, our society entered a float in our Annnual Winterama Parade. Our strawberry social had guests and visitors from a number of clubs from District 16 and David Hawke entertained close to 80 people. Despite a challenging growing year, we had almost 40 entries to our annual flower show. We had a variety of very interesting speakers and workshops throughout the year. | ||||||||
