Greetings all,
I hope everyone and their plants survived the festive season intact. After a one month absence
the newsletter is back to tell you what's going on in the Christchurch CP scene.

Big Day at the Botanic Gardens
I hope everyone is keeping Sunday the 24th of February free for the Big Day at the Botanic
Gardens. We've got a society stall allocated but we still need to sort out people to run the stall
and provide plants for sale and display. Setup will be on Sunday from 8:00am, with public
admission from 10:30am until 4:00pm. If you would like to be involved please contact me or
come along to the January meeting.

Newsletter Editor Required
Unfortunately, due to other commitments, I will be unable to continue writing the newsletter for 
much longer. If you are interested in taking over please let me know. Alternatively the job could
be rotated amongst several people. 

Meeting
When: Wednesday 30th January at 8:00pm

Where: Christchurch YMCA, cnr of Rolleston Ave and Hereford St. Parking available in the
YMCA carpark (access from Cashel St).

This Month: Preparation for the Bontanic Gardens Show in February.

Important bits regarding seed: 
- When ordering seed, make sure you include an S.A.E. 
- Seed costs $1.00 per packet. 
- Cheques should be made out to NZCPS-Christchurch Branch.
- If you wish to donate seed, please put the harvest date on it and ensure that
it is free of floral parts - this will make the job of the seed-bank director
that much easier. Once any donated seed has been divided up into saleable 
packets you will be credited with 1 packet of free seed for every 3 packets 
that result from your donation. 

Seed orders and donations should be sent to:
Fern Norton
Seed Bank Director 
P.O. Box 7 Sefton 
North Canterbury

Alternatively the seed-bank should be available at most meetings.
