NEWS

At our April meeting James Wood gave us an account in his very enthusiastic and knowledgeable style of a recent botanical trip to New Zealand.

During Easter the club had a 3 day trip into the South West, staying at Pedder Chalet in Strathgordon. The weather started off perfect but ended up very wet— but everyone stayed cheerful! We visited eleven different sites and had talks & presentations both evenings. There will be a report in the July Bulletin.
