Eganville Horticultural Society

The floral emblem of the society is the Daisy

The Eganville Horticultural Society meets at 7.30pm on the third Monday of each month (except July and August). We meet at St. Luke’s Lutheran Church Hall, at the corner of Jane and Hartwig Streets in Eganville, and would love to welcome new members.

The Society was formed in 1955, and has carried the mandate of "Beautification in the Village" since that time. The number of members has varied, but at the present time our membership consists of approximately 65 to 70 members, with an additional guest membership of 5 or 6 at any given meeting.

Each meeting begins with a business and informational period of about 20 minutes, after which our featured speaker is introduced, and the presentation (usually lasting about 30 to 40 minutes) is enjoyed. Our evening is always finished off with a social hour, including refreshments, and visits with each other.
