February meeting

Some notes from the February newsletter worth a reminder on before this saturdays workshop

February Meeting - Workshop

The February meeting will be a workshop but not like you might have experienced before. Most workshops last year saw fewer people bring trees to work on and more observers. So this year we are going to set them up as a far more interactive tutored workshops. We plan to have two lines of tables and our resident advanced members, the two Geoffs, and Gwen will patrol the space between them, offering advice and sharing any useful learnings with the whole group. If you want some advice on a tree and plan to do some work, then please take a place at the tables. If you are only observing then please take a chair in the second row away from the tables.

With different tutors you will get different advice. Don’t be afraid to ‘shop around’ for ideas on the day and choose the idea you like; join in the discussion. There is no one right answer.
