June was an enjoyable and productive month.  24 items of information were received from 14 contributors, bringing the totals to 9,244 from 3,224.  Thank you everyone!

12 walks, which attracted a total of 168 people, were held, and a visit was made to St Albans for the annual Alban Pilgrimage.  18 posts were added to the website’s blog page.

Rather disappointingly little useful correspondence was received via the website; people who use or visit it are encouraged to send in any memories, etc., to help improve our knowledge of plant folklore, and information from outside Britain is particularly appreciated.
