Yorkshire
Does he ever give up promoting allotments?
The simple answer is... ...no
Phil Gomersall, NAS Mentor for Yorkshire and Humberside was out again at the Robert Ogden Centre in Leeds in October giving a light hearted but brief talk on the bene ts of allotment gardening and the promotion of our beloved recreational activity.
Harrogate Autumn Flower Show 2015
The Yorkshire Allotment Gardeners Federation was in attendance at the Harrogate Autumn Flower Show 2015. We had a rather different setting, due to the refurbishment of the Yorkshire Showground facilities. After the magni cent display and hard work for the spring show, we restricted ourselves to an information stand with a comprehensive display of lea ets, although we had a good position right outside the café entrance.
There were lots of enquiries throughout the show and a lot relating to self-management; quite understandable in these uncertain times.
My thanks go out to all who helped man the stand and especially those who helped break down the stand at the end.
Another good show.
