Meet in The Square/Stocks Hill. If anybody wants to help gardening, just come along. We have been offered plants and refuse sacks, but people might want to bring their own gloves etc.

Everyone is welcome to come to our Spring plant sale in the grounds of St. Mary's Church from 9:30 am to 12 noon. Plants of all shapes, sizes, and colours will be on sale, and refreshments will be available. If anybody wants more information, to help, or donate plants just email us on .

We are tidying up Ladycroft Meadow between St. Mary's Lane and the Park. If anybody wants to help, just come along. We can provide refuse bags, but bring our own gloves etc.

We have done some weeding of the border in front of the Square opposite to The Stocks and Ecclesfield Business Centre, and put wood chips down. However, more work is needed, so a work party has been arranged and at which bags will be provided and the resulting garden waste disposed of.

* Black Bull Tracy's Clothing Alterations * M.E.P.S * Carter Smith (Accountants) * Everybody who contributed to, or bought at our Spring 2015 Plant Sale and Coffee Morning * All our members who have worked so hard on Ladycroft, The Square, and other areas Sponsorship plaques have now arrived, and will be attached to the planters shortly.

The "Ecclesfield in Bloom" Annual Christmas Fayre will be on the morning of 21st November 2015, in St. Mary's Church. There will be hand made gifts, cakes, and lots of other things to see and buy - all in aid of Ecclesfield in Bloom.

We are hoping to move two of the planters currently on Priory Road back to their original positions on Church Street. We think that the road and pavement works that necessitated their removal have finished, and they can again be enjoyed in their proper places. We are also in process of replacing, and cleaning the white plaques attached to the planters, so if any firms would like to sponsor one, then please get in touch - e.g. by emailing .

(I don't have a photograph of the planters in their current position on Priory Road, but if somebody emails one to us then I will put it here).

We enjoyed wonderful weather, while we re-oiled the benches between St. Mary's Church and Priory Road, and generally tidied up the area.

A big thank you to everyone who helped organise and supply our Spring plant sale on The Green outside St. Mary's Church. The event raised £110 for Bloom funds by selling plants, plus further amounts from cards, raffle, and donations.

We will be working in The Square/Stocks Hill from 10:00 in the morning. If you want to help plant, weed, or generally tidy up, just come along. There should also be some crocus bulbs available for planting in the Village Green.

We have now planted a permanent Village Christmas Tree. Hopefully it will continue to grow, so that we will be able to decorate it this December.

(I don't have a photograph of the Christmas Tree yet, but if somebody emails one to then I will put it here).

Caution: LadyCroft Meadow, and other areas we look after contain daffodils which are poisonous, as well as wild flowers and native trees, many of which protect themselves by being poisonous to humans and animals. Cuttings or debris may be especially dangerous, since animals may not be put off from eating them, while some of their poisons last 6 months. Nothing on these areas should therefore be eaten or grazed.
