Shropshire Organic Gardeners

Shropshire Orgnanic Gardeners (SOGs) are a local group of amateur horticulturalists who organise events and visits to educate people about the benefits of organic gardening. 

This naturally complements the work of Shropshire Master Composters of course because home composting is the cornerstone of any organic garden.  In fact many of the members of SOGs are also volunteer Master Composters in their spare time too and vice versca!  We can often be seen alongside one another at flower shows and village fetes around the county and we would together in partnership to encourage more people to grow their own and compost more, all of which helps protect our environment. 

Below for example is an event at Welshampton Green Fayre where we both exhibited side by side recently which allows us to "germinate" some great joint-ideas and "share best practice" for composting and gardening tips.
