This month we held an open tree critique, and invited our members to bring in their trees for open discussion with new ideas, feedback and suggestions. These are usually bonsai you have but no idea in what direction it could be going in.
The Test Valley Woodfair is back, this year on Saturday 2nd September 2017 at Zion’s Hill Copse, Chandlers Ford in Hampshire. It is a free event and the activities are all through the woodland and nature reserve for one day.
