We spent a happy evening making decorations for our tree which will be in the Christmas Tree Festival soon. This is what we made, with some mulled wine to help us along.
And here’s the finished result, with some of the makers. Come and see our tree along with all the others at the Parish Church Christmas Tree Festival, 12th-15th December.
Once again Otley in Bloom will be giving away daffodil bulbs in the market this Saturday 10 November, this year they will be miniature daffs in celebration of our Silver Gilt win in Yorkshire in Bloom 2018.
June saw Otley in Bloom’s 2018 Timayane Day when Prince Henry’s students assist the community. At Otley in Bloom, some 20 students came and planted out many many plants into all the tubs around town. Thanks to all the help provided “many hands made light work” and the town is prettier for it.
After the Beast-from-the-East took out the original Great British Spring Clean, it’s on again
You are invited to ….. the Great British Spring Clean.
We aim to tidy up the town and the countryside in the middle of April.
Pickers and bags provided, but you may want to bring your own gloves. Let the council know you are coming so Otley Council can supply enough equipment by sending an email to Otley Council admin@otleytowncouncil.gov.uk or drop into the Core and book your place.
Please come and see our tree at the Christmas Tree Festival at the Parish Church from 6th to 9th December. There will be 40 trees to see, all set up by local charities and community groups, so bring some coins to support your favourites. There will be musical performances and the cafe will be open.
