Membership

Becca Flintham is an environmental educator at the Escot estate in East Devon and has been a popular speaker over the past few years when she inspired us to think much more about using water-wise gardening methods to cope with climate change, focusing on ‘smart watering’ and planting trees and shrubs. Her return on 10th March last year was eagerly awaited, and she did not disappoint.

In her talk entitled ‘The Best of Friends’, Becca once again highlighted the ways in which we gardeners work with nature to maintain soil health, control pests and grow flourishing plants. Becca is making a welcome return on Friday, 11th April to talk about ‘Gardening for Wildlife’. Not to be missed!

11th April: Gardening for Wildlife – Becca Flintham

Good Gardening

Kilmington has fertile soil, soft Devon climate, and a long tradition of good gardening.

Since its foundation more than 60 years ago, the village ‘Produce Association’ has spread its influence far beyond carrots and cabbages, offering talks and demonstrations by experts who understand the needs of the novice with a window box as well as the gardener with an acre or two.

We hold a plant market, open our gardens, arrange visits and host a summer Flower Show. We are ready to share our enthusiasm for plants and gardens with everyone, old or young, resident or visitor.
