Worleston Village Hall, Main Road, Worleston, Nantwich CW5 6DN

The thought- provoking title of Diane’s talk is 'Plan? there is No plan!' an interesting overview of the development of Lloyd’s Flower Farm located inTarporley.
With a very limited budget, Diane and her husband Steven, assisted by friends and family have turned an overgrown plot of land with no water or power supply into an environmentally friendly, chemical and pesticide-free garden and cut flower farm.
Diane will share how she set up the flower farm and her successes and failures.
After conducting extensive research, they discovered that their site in Tarporley is actually the Victorian walled kitchen garden of Arderne Hall, and Diane will share her findings on the site and its history.
