Welcome to Ropley Horticultural Society

We are a group of keen gardeners who meet to share our interest in gardens and gardening. We usually meet about seven times a year with speakers on topical horticultural subjects. We have our Flower of the Month competition at each meeting and in addition at the July meeting there is a Sweet Pea Competition. Other events include two Flower and Produce Shows as well as a Plant Sale. We also organise two or three member events when we typically visit other gardens for organised tours.

If you would like to join us please print out the Membership Form and bring it along to one of our meetings or alternatively send it to our Membership Secretary.
