Grand Bend & Area Horticultural Society
District 10
Our Society, founded in 1991, is part of District 10 in the Ontario Horticultural Association under whose
by-laws we are governed.
We are a group of volunteers who love ‘digging in the soil’ and sharing our gardening ideas and experiences with others.
Our group is made up of volunteers: Board members, committee members and garden teams, who work together to help beautify our Community and assist our members and local residents in learning about all things “horticultural”.
