Elham village is situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the North Downs.
Elham Gardening Society is very active and welcomes anyone
wishing to join.
None of our members feel they are super efficient gardeners -
they just like doing it, mistakes and all!
“How Artists & Garden Designers lead us up the Garden Path” - OPEN GARDENS
Our meetings take place on the third Thursday of each month in Peggy Pike Room at Elham Village Hall at 7.30pm.
You won't feel out of place and you can join there, or click below to contact our Membership Secretary.
We offer wide ranging and interesting talks ranging from “Vegetable Growing Techniques” to “The Premiere of Elham Open Gardens”
You will be kept up to date about everything we do by regular emails if you are a Gardening Society member.
We have a popular Spring Show in April. This is also the
opportunity to buy your potato for the "Potato in a Bucket"
competition, and a Fuchsia Plug plant for the "Chairman's
Challenge" both are judged at the main Summer Show.
There will be plants, produce and of course, home-made cakes for
sale.

Classes which not only cover Vegetables and Flowers but include
Domestic, Handicrafts, Art and Photography.
