Weardale Flower and Garden Club

Welcome

Welcome to the website of Weardale Flower and Garden Club. Our group comprises like minded gardeners, flower growers and flower arrangers. This group, formed in 1978 is part of the Northumberland and Durham Area NAFAS, National Association of Flower Arrangement Societies, a registered charity with over 55,000 members nationally. Being a part of NAFAS gives us access to regional and national shows, a magazine, educational courses, competitions, and social events, as well as discounts at some suppliers. We welcome all to our meetings and outings. Visitors are welcome to attend up to 2 meetings before joining us.

About Us

We meet on the third Tuesday of the month at 7pm in Wolsingham Town Hall. Members and non-members are all welcome to attend. Throughout the year we enjoy garden visits, welcome demonstrators and gardening talks, workshops and social events. We're also delighted to help and support local events and festivals, eg agricultural shows, fund raising events, flower festivals. On a monthly basis we provide an arrangement of flowers for Weardale Community Hospital.
