Garden Hamilton aka Mount Hamilton Horticultural Society

District 6

About Us

The mission of the Mount Hamilton Horticultural Society aka Garden Hamilton is to educate and promote an interest in all areas of horticulture and related environmental issues. We are a charitable, non-profit organization. For the last twenty years, our Society has designed and maintained the gardens at Jason's House, a March of Dimes Home in a quiet neighbourhood on the west mountain. In 2019, we helped to rejuvenate the garden at the West Hamilton Cenotaph.
You do not have to live on Hamilton Mountain to belong to the Society. We welcome anyone from the Hamilton area and beyond to become a member.
