| Anniversary And/Or Other Special Events | This year, 2026, is the 100th anniversary of the Moorefield & District Horticulture Society. We are hosting our District annual meeting in April in conjunction with a celebration of the anniversary. As a society project to commemorate this momentous occasion we completed a 50/50 project with our Township of Mapleton in 2025 that replaced some degrading stone garden planters at the entrance to the park and ball diamonds in Moorefield with a larger set of stone enclosed gardens. Rod iron gates were placed in the gardens. | ||||||||

| Highlights | In 2025 we looked after 11 community gardens with members doing a lot of supplemental watering as a result of the dry weather. We completed our 100th anniversary project with the township in May. New gardens with rod iron gates were built at the entrance to the park and ball diamonds in Moorefield, replacing very old stone planters that were crumbling. We held 8 meetings, including 2 full shows and 2 mini shows. We had 6 guest speakers including one on Synergistic designs. A plant sale was held in June and a tour to Kepplecroft Garden in July. | ||||||||
