Please note: Due to COVID-19 all in-person events are cancelled until further notice. As government restrictions and guidance change we will modify any events that are scheduled.

The objectives of the Oro-Medonte Horticultural Society are as follows:

l. To encourage an interest in all branches of horticulture.
2. To promote and implement civic beautification.
3. To encourage planting trees, shrubs and flowers in our municipality.
4. To stimulate and support youth interest in horticulture.
5. To promote the circulation of horticultural information.
6. To promote protection of the environment through practice, lectures and any other suitable means.

We are a friendly group, over 200 in number. Our meetings are interesting, informative and we have a great group of volunteers who do everything from baking delicious mouthwatering treats for the general meetings, to digging up extra perennial plants in your beds (if you wish)and potting plants for our annual plant sale and maintaining 8 Township and Park gardens.

We have Master Gardeners on call who will be pleased to reply to questions on gardens, horticulture or other gardening topics that interest you. Val Gillespie and Louise Jackson, our society's Master Gardeners, can be contacted at info.omhs[at]gmail.com.

Consider volunteering to get involved with the Society. Check out the list of Volunteer positions needed.
