Hi Everyone
Thanks to the generosity of local gardener, Sushma Brunt, who bought in spare dahlia bulbs to share with the community. These have now all gone to new homes! If you have spare goodies from your garden that you would like to share with the community, feel free to bring them in to CPCC for re-distribution! There’s lots in our “Coming Soon” section this week, with many term four classes now open for enrolment. For what’s coming up next week, please clickhere.
