Newsletter
A small team of volunteers have been producing newsletters three times a year since 1997. Each newsletter includes a report from the Curator, a range of articles that have wide appeal to gardeners, horticulturalists, botanists, and those with an interest in the natural environment and local history.
A list of our newsletters, with a summary of the articles in each one, and a link to the newsletter, can be found below.
The latest issue is not listed, as it is available only to members of the Friends for the first four months after publication. Newsletters are issued at the end of the following months: January, May and September.
Are you already a member? View the latest issue.
If you don’t want to wait four months then Join us.
Newsletter contributions
Would you like to contribute an article to our newsletter?
