FLORAL FOREST
The Forest Floral Group meets regularly to achieve these aims in our parish. We take part in the annual Floral Guernsey Community and Douzaine Room competitions, the overall winner of the Community competition receives a nomination to enter the finals of RHS Britain in Bloom competition the following year.
Apart from the committee, we have volunteers who assist us in many different areas. In the summer, dead-heading and watering are major preoccupations, and help is also needed with wombling (collecting litter), social and fundraising events, growing-on plants for our plant sale, assisting with the schools' gardening clubs, delivering letters, paperwork, etc, etc. We are forever grateful to our happy band of volunteers.
Our Committee Mission Statement reads:-
"To enhance the natural environment by encouragement, education and example thereby raising parish pride and self-respect for the benefit of resident and visitors alike; to make the parish a pleasure to pass through; to include the children of the parish; to keep on top of litter; to keep areas of special interest well maintained."
Would you like to become a volunteer?
