Woldingham & District Horticultural Society

> Go to list of events for 2010

The Society has been thriving for over 80 years and currently has about 170 members.

Every year the Society organises three shows - Spring, Summer and Autumn; a spring plant sale and an autumn coffee morning and plant sale; a series of lectures; a visit to one or two gardens of special interest. In the village it tends the rose beds in the Crescent and the flower bed at the station. Recently it has planted large numbers of daffodil bulbs at various sites around the village.

We are always very pleased to welcome as new members anyone with an interest in gardening, be they beginners or 'stalwart' green fingers, who would like to meet like minded people in the village to share their love of all things horticultural. The annual membership is a very modest £3 for single membership or £4 for family membership.

Please speak to our membership secretary Ann Anderson for more information on 652233.
