Halstead & District Horticultural Society
Established in 1976, the Halstead & District Horticultural Society is an active village club with around 120 members. It is organised and run by a committee of twelve.
Three
shows – Spring, Summer and Autumn
A full
day coach outing plus other outings using members’ transport
Regular
talks on a wide range of gardening and related topics
Plant
Sale in May
Annual
Quiz in October
We also have around twenty Allotment Plots
in a lovely Walled Garden which is run by the Society. Plots are all of a
manageable size and plot holders can also benefit from communal areas of orchard
and soft fruit beds. Call Helen on 01689 860805 if you would like to know more.
We are delighted to be linked to the Badgers Mount website and hope this
will encourage new enquiries for membership, especially from the Badgers Mount
area.
