An invite to all members & past participants of GRO-FUN & any newbees who wish to grow their own food but are not sure where to start (whether you have a garden or not).

GRO-FUN has undergone an exciting evolution over the winter months and enters 2010 refreshed & renewed. To celebrate we want to welcome you to a free evening at the Pierian Centre on March 2nd, 7.30-9pm. Come and hear what about the changes we have made and learn of our plans for next year. Help influence the direction of our community lead organisation-we welcome Your input.

The evening will kick off at 7.30pm with something to drink, and be all 'done and dusted' by 9pm. Please arrive promptly.

If you happen to have any vegetable seeds going spare, we'll facilitate a small Seed-Swap as well.

Book your place asap by contacting nadia@grofun.org.uk or tel 07973847894
