Yorkton and District Horticultural Society

You might think that a group such as a horticultural society gathers once in a while to talk about gardening while sipping tea.

Well, think again!

Yes, it’s true we have monthly meetings (with amazing lunches thanks to our volunteer lunch committee!).  We also have interesting speakers or presentations at every meeting.

But we do so much more!

Did you know…hard-working volunteers from our group spend time weekly at the Solarium at the hospital, maintaining the plants, and making a beautiful and serene retreat for patients and guests to enjoy.

Did you know…hard-working volunteers from our group work in partnership with the City of Yorkton on the “Yorkton In Bloom” event, helping to promote making the city a greener and more beautiful place.

Did you know…hard-working volunteers help to plant, weed and maintain flowerbeds at the Heritage Place Seniors’ Complex and the Yorkton and District Nursing Home, providing a beautiful and homey touch in the flowerbeds that the residents can enjoy all season long.

Did you know…that the majority of our group comes together and puts on a beautiful flower and vegetable show every August.  This event is open to the public, showing you the best of the best in our gardens each year.  Join us to learn and be inspired!

Did you know…that we reach gardening friends on Access Communications with a “get to know us” show each year.

Did you know…that you can learn more about us regularly on-line at our beautiful website, www.yorktonhort.ca  Check it often because new info is always being added!

Yes, you can have tea at our meetings…but be prepared for an interesting and educational time as well when you gather with the great people of the Yorkton and District Horticultural Society!
