East Cheshire
The East Cheshire AGS group meetings are held in a friendly atmosphere with plant sales, engaging speakers, competitions and raffles.
The East Cheshire Group has been running for over 50 years.
Our gardening group organises a range of activities for its members.
Apart from regular meetings, where speakers give lectures on plants and members socialize and buy plants, we also organise day trips to various gardens and nurseries in the North West.
As a group we have also been involved in building displays for the AGS at the Tatton flower show, winning medals every time (we are particularly proud to have won the RHS Holford Medal for best display at all shows in 2018).
Subscription: Single £10.00; Family £18.00; Visitors £4.00.
