Presentation to Family Investment Homes - Garden Design Winners

HBM

Some members of the Herne Bay in Bloom Committee visited Elham Valley Vineyards this week which is the base for the Family Investment Homes organisation, to judge the entries which members had designed for the new garden which Herne Bay in Bloom have commissioned for the Hampton Green area in Herne Bay.

They were welcomed in the excellent tea rooms run by some of the residents by Peter Buscall, the Garden Centre manager and his assistant Joanne who are going to collate the winning designs ready for construction of the garden early in the New Year. (See Photo Gallery for more winning designs)

After enjoying tea and some delicious homemade mince tart the design winners were presented with their prizes by Colleen Ashwin-Keane, HBIB Secretary and Margaret Burns, Chair also presented all the other members present with their Certificate of Excellence awarded by the RHS S&SE in Bloom for the work which they had done for helping with the 2011 campaign.
