Behind the scenes at Larch Cottage

Event Details

 

Come to Larch Cottage Nursery for a rare and unique opportunity to ‘go behind the scenes’ and meet owner Peter Stott as he provides a tour of the nursery and propagation fields. They grow over 90% of the plants they sell there in the ‘frozen north’ and specialise in rare and unusual shrubs, perennials and climbers, Japanese acers, old fashioned roses and slow growing dwarf conifers.

This is a one-off event so don’t miss the opportunity to explore this secret garden and the propagation fields hidden away in the tiny hamlet of Melkinthorpe!

The charge is £15 per person, but for Asby Gardening Club members there will be a reduced rate of £12, the charge includes coffee. Places do have to be booked in advance & are limited.
If you would like to come with us please let Gwen know.

Non members very welcome.

Meet at the bus shelter to arrange shared transport at 12:30 to arrive in time for lunch or refreshment at the cafe in advance; or a browse around the nursery.

ATG Activities

We will be working with local landowners to identify small areas of land that can be used to plant trees or hedges. Occasional requests will go out to members, seeking volunteers to survey areas of land to assess the age and health of trees and to identify possible planting areas, as well as to take part in planting trees and hedges. These activities will normally be scheduled to last for no more than three hours.

The Tree Group has insurance to cover members carrying out these activities.

COVID Policy (Feb.2022)

Unfortunately Covid-19 has not gone away, and we still want everyone to feel safe whilst being able to enjoy the film.

  • We use ‘cabaret-style’ seating around suitably spaced tables.
  • We recommend that you continue to wear a face covering when moving around the village hall, though this may be removed whilst you are seated.
  • It would also be appreciated if you could complete an antigen (lateral flow) test before attending.  (We are more than happy to refund your ticket should your test unfortunately prove positive.)
