The August meeting of Café Botanique will be a talk by Professor Scott Armbruster on Tuesday 27 August.

Rosemary has arranged for the VBG Botany Club to visit the Kingston Smallholding, the home of Simone and David Whistance at Shorwell. Simone is the inspired designer who makes our magazine Ventnorensis so colourful and attractive so I am sure we shall see this artistic talent reflected in the design of their smallholding.

Please let Rosemary know if you hope to come so that she can give Simone some idea of numbers. Bring a friend too!   £5 in the hat for the Friends. email: rosemarystewart@icloud.com

Members of the Friends’ can view their preview invitation here.

The full details of the 2019 event are now available and you can get a sneak preview! The images are being scanned as they are received and you can view them online here.
