| Highlights | In 2025 our society hosted the District 10 Annual Fall Workshop. Additionally, four times, a small group represented our society at the local downtown market, doing demonstrations related to horticulture, and answering gardening questions. We had provided a special area for children to “get their hands dirty”, providing a fun introduction to gardening. In July we were privileged to host the Seaforth Horticultural Society, when they stopped in Strathroy at a daylily growing business, as a part of their annual bus trip. | ||||||||||||||
