Yorkton and District Horticultural Society

The Yorkton and District Horticultural Society would like to thank everyone who made the 2015 “Fruit, Flower and Vegetable Show” such a success!

Thank you to everyone who helped set up and take down the show, the people who brought the delicious dainties, the hard-working kitchen and serving crew, the greeters at the door, everyone who brought beautiful displays and exhibits for the show, and or course… thank you to all our gardening friends who came to spend the afternoon with us! It was a pleasure to visit with you!

Someone once asked, what is the purpose of the show?  There are really several answers. The purpose of the show is: –  to share our gardening efforts with the public to help encourage an interest in gardening and horticulture.  –  it is a learning experience because the show gives us all a chance to see new varieties of fruit, flowers and vegetables, and ask questions about what these plants are and how to grow them. – it is a creative experience, because we can see new and interesting ways to plant in our own yards or gardens. –  it is a social event where people with a common enjoyment of gardening can get together and share ideas and gardening experiences. – it is a wonderful chance to have coffee, delicious dainties, and see beautiful flowers at the same time.

Once again, thank you to everyone who helped make it happen! Happy Gardening!
