2023 Fruit, Flower and Vegetable Show

A Blooming Success!

Well, another Yorkton and District Horticultural Society Fruit, Flower and Vegetable Show has come and gone, and it was a blooming success!!

Did you know that on September 7, 1906, the Yorkton horticultural group made its debut with their first flower show at the city hall? Despite gardening challenges, those early gardeners felt it was important to gather together and share their garden experience and appreciate the beauty and bounty of whatever they were able to grow.

We’re very proud that our group hosted a great annual show! Thank you to our wonderful members who continue to take part and support us with enthusiasm, positive feedback, and fresh new ideas. We know that this season presented challenges to all of us, but for those members who took the time and effort to bring exhibits, thank you so much!

It all looked so good, and generated many positive and appreciative comments from our guests!

A huge bouquet of thanks to everyone who took part in the show, from organizing to setting up to taking down. Thank you to everyone who brought any kind of exhibits; with your help and enthusiasm, we had a marvellous show!

Thank you also goes to the Parkland Mall for all their help; Access Communications for their coverage; and Yorkton This Week for always taking the time to cover our events! We appreciate your help, thank you, all!

And of course, thank you to all our gardening friends who came to the show, it was great to have your company!

Regular meetings are happening again after the summer break; the first one will be on Wednesday, September 20. More details will follow.
