Members' shop, weekly meetings, monthly talks

Our small members' shop is open on Saturday mornings from 10am until noon in the Oasis Centre at Whitefield Methodist Church, Elms Street, M45 8GQ

Our Saturday morning shop is also a social affair! Tea/coffee and biscuits are served and you can always seek advice or just have a chat with fellow gardeners. Usually on the first Saturday of each month we organize a short, 30 minute, formal talk, followed by a question & answer session. The list of forthcoming monthly talks will be published shortly.

                                                                    Supplies for gardeners​

We stock the basic range of fertilisers for your garden/allotment, namely growmore,  bonemeal and fish/blood/bone, together with a  range of specific plant foods for tomatoes, roses, house plants etc. We can supply all that is needed to maintain a lush lawn – feed, weed and moss-killers.

 

For the benefit of members who have only a household area, we can weigh products out into quantities suitable for the small garden.  We supply and we do our best to deliver locally bulky items (such as potting compost) for those who do not have their own transport.

​

Most of our prices are very, very competitive. We generally place a bulk order with our supplier in January each year. This gets us a better discount which we are able to pass on to members. We do not produce a full online price list as costs move constantly. Some costs moved dramatically up recently. For example, fertiliser prices hiked on a reputed world shortage of phosphates; recent multi-purpose compost increases are blamed on reducing peat content and developing new alternatives.

You need to be a member to use our shop. Annual membership costs just £2 which can easily be saved on your first purchase.
