Welcome to HOOK GARDENING CLUB
COVID 19 Announcement
Following the cancellation of all our meetings since Coronavirus lockdown in March this year after serious thoughts and consideration we have decided not to restart meetings until September 2021 at the earliest.
We are disappointed but feel that the ongoing situation with social distancing measures, the venue needing to be covid compliant etc all the rules and regulations need to be set in place.
How we run our meetings when we eventually reopen may have to change also so we will have to have a good think on how to run our meetings in the future.
BUT WE WILL BE BACK!!
Meanwhile our fundraising will continue and we will keep everyone updated in Goole Times on this website and our social media channels. (find us on Facebook, Twitter & Instagram).
Our dedicated fundraising Facebook page is ‘Made By Justine’.
We hope our visitors have stayed safe at this difficult time and look forward to seeing you all when we can safely restart our meetings hopefully in autumn 2021.
Happy Gardening
Justine Dixon (Founder & Organiser of Hook Gardening Club).
Fundraising
Despite this difficult and strange time our fundraising continues.
We are adhering to social distancing measures and we have been selling our seasonal fundraising preserves, homemade lavender bags and even held a herb & veg plant stall at the end of May

What people say about Hook Gardening Club
I had a lovely attentive audience who seemed receptive to the ‘working with (and for) wildlife’ gardening methods at Shandy Hall. Thanks to Hook Gardening Club for inviting me!
Wonderful talk, thoroughly enjoyed and will be going to see Shandy hall and its beautiful garden. First visit for me and my parents to the gardening club, we were made very welcome and looking forward to next month’s meeting.
Had my first but certainly not my last visit last night I will certainly be back. Lovely group, interesting speaker, a great community group. Thanks for your welcome.
Many thanks for a lovely evening. Everyone was really welcoming and friendly and it was great to be back at Hook Gardening Club, this time with Jill for our Gardening on the Menu talk – Martin Fish
The garden club is an excellent addition for Hook. For many reasons but we have always loved gardening and it gives us chance to keep in touch with new ideas from the wide variety of speaker to the social part. It has helped us integrate ourselves into the village.
‘Great to meet everyone and for being so welcoming. Hope to see you at RHS Harlow Carr sometime
