Our monthly meetings feature visiting speakers covering a variety of subjects - see the list below. Doors open at 7pm, with the talk starting at 7.30pm, followed by tea/coffee, time to chat, buy plants and draw the raffle.

We often have additional events organised with visits to gardens, nurseries or our own stand at the Hordle Summer Fair in late summer, and not forgetting our own 'closed' Shows (members only) where we have some not too serious competitive spirit to show off our growing efforts!

Speaker Programme of Monthly Meetings - 2019

Doors open at 7pm, with the talk starting at 7.30pm, followed by tea/coffee and time to chat, buy plants, look at the display table and draw the raffle... finishing approximately 9pm.

Every meeting has:-

• a 'sale table' where members can donate plants to the club to sell to other members - if they don't sell, can you please take them away and try again next time
• a 'table show', giving members the opportunity to bring a vase of something relevant to the month - see the Newsletter for the subject of each month.
• a raffle - your contributions are very welcome
