Kew Garden Trip July 2016
Thank you to everyone who came along! We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. We had some great weather, the plants were in their glory and the picnic was delicious.
We got some lovely feedback, and we hope to see you at future events!
"Thank you for a really lovely day out, we both enjoyed it tremendously. We enjoyed meeting some of the Ealing group and of course reconnecting to you and those we had met before. Kew is a really fabulous place and to get to see it when the flowerers were out was magnificent. The Hive was an added very unexpected pleasure neither of us will forget; my voice memos have recorded well.It always amazes me what a feast is created when everyone brings something to share. I particularly remember the lemon cake and potato omelette!"
