DICKER VILLAGE GREEN: It is hoped that you like the new planting and benches on the Village Green. If you would like to help with maintaining it, please come along to the Green on Friday July 13 at 4pm and have a chat about what you might do. No need to be an experienced gardener or to make a regular commitment. In the meantime, if you are passing and see a weed, or a rose that could do with dead-heading, please feel free to do it. The herbs are there for all to use, so do help yourselves and pull a weed at the same time.
