The garden group was set up in April 2011 and we meet, usually, on the third Tuesday of every month at 10:30 a.m. or sometimes on a Friday morning.

The purpose of our gardening group is to explore and learn about gardens and plants through visiting gardens and arranging talks. Venues are occasionally reached by local transport but more often by car sharing.

We will have a number of garden visits throughout the remainder of 2026, some more local than others. By going as a group to these gardens we often are able to arrange a private guided tour or introduction followed by lovely refreshments.

Gardens visited in the past have included: Picton Nursery near Malvern, Avondale Nursery near Coventry, Badge Court Garden, Coton Court Garden, The Firs, Whitlenge Gardens and Arley Arboretum. Also there was a coach trip to Western Arboretum which was open to all H&E u3a membership.
