The first workshop at Thorngrove in 2021 was on 28th August.
The workshop was excellent, it was good to get back after such a long time. It is an excellent venue for us. This time there were several Pines being wired, as well as a Large Cotoneaster that needed pruning and a big Field Maple also that was pruned.
