Our story!
A group of like minded people got together to create Richmond Garden Club in 1957. Gardens were very valuable to most families at that time growing food to enjoy during the summer months and then store through canning methods, freezing, and putting into root cellars.
Every year Richmond Garden Club hosted community wide horticultural shows showcasing magnificent dahlias and roses.
Today our members continue to plant food for their families, with a strong focus on attracting pollinator insects and wildlife to their gardens and to ensure that we educate many more people in the community to protect our environment through best practices in gardening.
