WEST FELTON SPRING ARTS & CRAFTS FAIR - Saturday 14th MARCH.

The sellers at the regular Arts & Crafts fair in the autumn asked the village hall committee to put one on in Spring as well, so this is the first venture. It will be a nice event, meet the friends, tea and cake, and an opportunity to buy gifts/treats.

Spanish Bluebells for your garden

Dear Blogger

Would anyone like some SPANISH bluebell bulbs which are just coming up - in the wrong place!

These look like ordinary bluebells to you & me but in fact they must not be planted in the wild or they will compete with our own wild bluebells.

Just for the garden blue bells for a small contribution to the NGS.

Let me know when you want to collect.
