Basildon Horticultural Society is affiliated to the Royal Horticultural Society and runs a number of social events throughout the year with something for everyone from beginners to seasoned gardeners. We're excited about our Flower Arranging demonstration in March from which we hope to get a few more Flower Arranging entries at the highlights of our calendar - the Spring and Summer Shows.
Being part of the HortSoc committee is a fun way to contribute to village life. We aim to have between 4 and 6 short meetings a year. Below is a list of positions currently on offer:

Please contact us at [email protected] if you are interested in getting involved at any level or if you have any suggestions for future events. Membershipcosts £6 per family and entitles you to discounts at local businesses & free entry to classes in the show and our talks.
