  • Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar Year Report 2019
    Foundation Arboretum Wespelaar Year Report 2019 2019 started with an early spring: by mid-March the early magnolias were in full flower. Temperatures kept rising and the heat record was broken in July, making the summer of 2019 one to be recorded in history books. Luckily, small rain showers and increased irrigation capacities ensured that we lost very few plants. In March 2019, the construction of the Artois Pavilion started in the Artois Meadow, at the end of two important vistas. The design is inspired by the old pavilion along the canal in the Park of Wespelaar. In the new Arboretum de Marche, a total of 189 trees have been planted in the past two years. In collaboration with Natagora, five ponds were created and a 5ha plot was sown with wild seed to create a meadow of native grasses and flowers. The building permit for the visitors centre and technical facilities was obtained. 2019 was a very active year for both Arboretum Wespelaar and Arboretum de Marche, as is described in more detail in this Year Report.

Diary of events Full listings for the month Cover picture: Moller ‘Skycar’ Published by Horsham Amateur Radio Club HARCNEWS is produced at home by G4JHI 2 Editorial This month see’s the autumn junk sale and for those who may not be familiar here is a basic summary. At 7.30pm the doors will open and during the 30 minute set up one can view the items coming up for auction. At the door David G4FQR and myself will hand out numbered tickets. If you are selling items please note that the club junk should go to the right hand end of the tables and everything else will go along in the order in which it arrives towards the left. When you buy something the finance department will need to know your ticket number and also when your items for sale come up. Light refreshments will be available during the peak time of the auction. Any items that are not sold should be taken away by whoever brought them.
