We are a friendly group which meets monthly from February through to November and where everybody participates in activities.  These may be flower shows, planned trips or plant sales, Youth group meetings and many other events. There is always a good attendance in meetings, conventions and seminars (district and provincial).  On the 24th of November 2010, we elected our officers for 2011.

We are proud of our Elmvale & District Horticultural Society where, together with all our members, we enjoy our shared interest.
