St Just in Bloom Christmas Tree 2023

The festive period has just been so busy for group members, with a Christmas tree to festoon at St Just Miners Chapel and wreaths to create with Ali Law from Wild West Flowers.

So we apologise that the general merriment prevented us from giving a more recent update.

As we move into a new year, the group hope to build on our positivity of recent times and begin to plan for what the year may have in store.

Firstly we are thrilled to announce our first fundraising event of 2024!

Mark Holman, esteemed garden designer and horticulturist will be joining us on Friday 9th February at St Just WI Hall to give a talk on ‘Garden Regeneration’.

 

Success at our 20th anniversary event!

November 2023:

The whole community joined members old and new back in November for a celebratory evening at the St Just Old Town Hall.

Congratulations to all our award winners, including our garden, photography and RHS It’s Your Neighbourhood entrants.

A massive thank you must go out to everyone that assisted in making this event such a wonderful evening; all of the SJIB volunteers, the team at the Old Town Hall, St Just Town Council, Della Events, Sugar Rae Bakery, local businesses and schools. A special mention to West Penwith Photography for capturing some beautiful images of the evening. 

Here’s to another 20 years!
