About Us

Newdigate Horticultural Society is an active society that encourages and promotes gardening and horticulture. We welcome first-time gardeners, experienced “old hands”, those with container gardens, large gardens, wildlife gardens, allotments and even no gardens but who are passionate about plants!

Each year we run a number of events to share ideas, plants and visit other gardens for new inspiration, whether within the village or further afield.

Run by a Committee, we welcome anyone to volunteer with us on our events as we really believe more hands make light work and we certainly couldn’t do all that we do without the willing hands of our members.

The Society has been in existence for over 125 years, initially as a combined Society with Capel and South Holmwood. ***Add in paragraph of history ***
