Extraordinary General Meeting
Community Centre Alton on 23rd September 2021 at 7pm
The future of the Alton Horticultural Society will be decided at this meeting.
Visitors are always welcome at our meetings (first visit free – thereafter £3.00 per person) and can join during the evening should they wish to.
Visits and Tours
The society arranges a programme of outings through the year, some day trips and others afternoon or evening visits. Often they include special access to gardens and are frequently led by experts. We try to vary the days of the visits so all our members, whether working or retired, have the opportunity to join in.
Every other year we arrange a holiday, visiting several gardens and places of interest.
We use executive coaches from a local travel firm as comfort is important.
We also try to ensure that the hotels we use are accessible.
