The containers and other areas in the town are now planted up with
autumn bedding plants so that our town still looks floral during the winter months.
More crocuses were planted on the grassed area on Ainsty Road in the Autumn
as well as snowdrops and crocuses on the Millennium Field Walkway.
It is worthwhile downloading a copy of our Floral Walk leaflet or obtain a hard copy
from the Wetherby Tourist Information Office in the Library on Westgate.
The Walk starts you off outside the Town Hall and takes about one hour and it also takes you
to some interesting places in town which you would not necessarily normally visit.
 | Commemorative Arch at Garden of Rest Entrance In the middle of May this year volunteers from Wetherby in Bloom Committee helped the manufacturer with the installation of a purpose-made arch at the entrance to the Garden of Rest, opposite Boots. This is dedicated to our late Chairman Geoff Humble for his many years of dedication and hard work to enhance the town with its beautiful floral displays. A plaque has been fitted to the arch in memory of Geoff. |  |
Thanks to Everyone
We could not maintain our displays without the reliable watering teams who turn out each evening
throughout the summer to keep everything going. Our thanks to them and our key holders,
the Black Bull and Morrison's Petrol Station, who provide invaluable assistance.
Our grateful thanks must also go to the sponsors of planters and vehicles, all those involved in fund raising and of
course our 'Friends'. With such support we will continue to do our best for the town, its residents and visitors alike.

"Cluster of Nuts" Car Park area transformed by Wetherby in Bloom Volunteers
After groundwork preparation by Leeds City Council, Wetherby in Bloom volunteers started working
on the roughly grassed area next to the coach drop off point. The shrubs, trees, perennials and turfing costs
were paid for with out of our funds and Pullans did an excellent job of laying the turf around the 3 new beds for us.
