The Welwyn Garden City Horticultural Society celebrates its 90th anniversary in 2012.

You can read all about its history by clicking here:-  History.

The Society remains as it always was, to foster the knowledge and care of plants and gardens and to give pleasure to its members through the good fellowship that a society should provide.

We meet throughout the season at St Francis’ church hall on the second Tuesday of the month with meetings starting at 8.00 pm. Doors open at 7.40pm. Coffee and biscuits are served after the talk. Eminent speakers give us an insight into many aspects of gardening and associated subjects.  Members are also encouraged to bring along plants and flowers to meetings for display and sale. See Programme  for information.

In the spring and summer, visits to gardens and nurseries are arranged for members. Click on Events for information. A newsletter is distributed three times a year and members can be kept in touch with local gardening events via email bulletins.

The annual subscription is £15 per annum with meetings open to guests and occasional visitors for a £3 donation.

If you would like to join please telephone or email the Membership Secretary Yve Rule on 01707  330501 or email yrule@waitrose.com or simply turn up at one of our meetings and sample what is on offer.

The WGC Horticultural Society is affiliated to the Royal Horticultural Society.  Members can receive free advice on gardening problems, plant identification and access to lectures and demonstrations all over Britain. The secretary has full details.
