Beaverton Horticultural Society

The Beaverton Horticultural Society was started in 1922 with the first flower show being held on September 22 1922 in the Town Hall. 

Today we hold 5 flower shows a year, and hold monthly meetings on the 4^th Thursday of the months of March, April, May, June, September October and November.  Not only do we have informative and entertaining speakers, we hold workshops and offer advice clinics for gardeners and enjoy a social time with homemade goodies.

 The Society purchases all plant material and does the planting and tending the beds at the Town Hall, the Library, and the Cenotaph, the Old Mill Gate, and the Point Bed. The hanging baskets in the downtown area are now looked after by the Township.  Each year the Society holds various fundraising activities.   In February in conjunction with the Beaverton Lions Winter Festival a Silent Auction is held.  Our May meeting is solely devoted to a Plant Auction.  Members create and donate designs which are auctioned in August and November.

We are very fortunate that most businesses in Beaverton support us by becoming Associate Members. We also appreciate the support from local residents, service clubs and the Township of Brock.

We are seeking new members and invite you to come out to a meeting and get to know your fellow gardeners in the beautiful Village of Beaverton. 

Mission Statement

Our mission is to offer opportunities to share horticultural knowledge and foster interest in gardening by bringing to our monthly meetings speakers who share their expert knowledge about plants and shrubs. We are also involved in civic beautification in and around Beaverton.  Volunteers from our Society do the planting and tending of the beds at the Town Hall, the Library, the Cenotaph, the Old Mill Gate, and the hanging baskets in the Downtown area.

We also seek to expand interest in horticulture through garden tours, flower shows and plant sales.
