DIGS work parties meet on Saturdays (in the winter) or Sundays (May to September) at 10:00 am and offer keen gardeners a chance to help in a variety

of garden chores. We stop occasionally for a cup of coffee and the opportunity to socialize. Fresh produce is put out on the harvest table at the road side and

islanders are welcome to help themselves (a small donation is appreciated).

 

Memberships are available (contact Jim or Margaret at m.e.harris50@gmail.com

Your DIGS membership card entitles you to discounts at most garden centres in town and helps fund the garden.
