WELCOME

Welcome to our Gardening Club Rhydlewis and District Gardening Club has been around since the time of Adam and Eve. In fact, it is believed that one of our members planted and tended the very apple tree that gave rise to the pair being expelled from the garden!!

Whether this urban myth is true or not, the club is here to encourage, improve and extend the members' knowledge of all branches of horticulture. It is open to everyone and new members are all always welcome to come along.

Our activities during the year include a varied programme of talks and social events, summer garden visits, a plant sale, social gatherings/bbq and an annual open show in August.

The Rhydlewis Gardening Club Autumn Produce Show


On the last Tuesday in August, the club, and other gardeners, showed the results of their summer's hard work at the  Autumn Produce Show. Everyone who exhibited needs to be congratulated. They brought the fruits of their gardening labour; the harvest they reaped, and it made a wonderful display. 


Apart from the individual prizes, there are five awards – cups and shields presented to the very best gardeners this year. 

So congratulations to these excellent gardeners:

Challenge Cup - most points gained in the vegetable classes - JANETTE SHARMAN





   Challenge Cup - most points gained in the floral classes - DILYS DAVIES




Rose Shield - Overall winner of class 30 - Vase of roses - three stems any one variety - SARA REDMAN





D&G Williams Shield - Most points in the Homecraft classes - VICKY WADE




JT Memorial Shield - Best exhibit in class 10 - 3 cooking onions - CARRIE DAVIES
