Welcome to The Coldwater Garden Club

"Keeping Coldwater & District Beautiful"

1952 - 2012  60th Anniversary

The Coldwater & District Horticultural Society was established on April 15, 1952 as a member of The Ontario Horticultural Association, District 16.  Our society was originally known as The Huronia Horticultural Society. Our society includes members from the village of Coldwater and the neighbouring district which includes Moonstone, Vasey, Warminster, Waubaushene, Victoria Harbour, Honey Harbour, Severn, Midland and Orillia.

Our Mission is to share and stimulate the advancement of education and interest in environmentally friendly gardening, horticulture and the natural environment around us.  We provide our members with tools and information to assist them in the creation and beautification of their own gardens and community beautification projects. 

Our Members share a love for anything that grows.  We have a desire to learn more and help to educate others, while sharing our own experiences of success and failure in the garden.  We are a group of gardeners ranging from beginners to experts with a common interest.
