Meavy Garden Society
First formed in 1962 the Society’s objects are to “Extend the knowledge of, and encourage interest in, the cultivation of flowers, plants and vegetables” in a friendly atmosphere. We welcome all who are “interested in the objects of the Society” from a wide area around Meavy.
We meet on the third Monday evening of months February to November, at 7:30 pm, in Meavy Parish Hall. Widely varied lectures are followed by questions from the floor over a cup of tea or coffee.
Our Spring flower show is a light-hearted fun evening for members to show the results of their indoor and outdoor skills during the past winter.
There is a coach outing each Spring and a local outing, sharing private cars, in early Autumn.
At the Summer Flower Show in August we welcome the public on Saturday afternoon from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm. There are sixteen classes for cut flowers, shrubs, plants in pots and vegetables with a perpetual trophy for each, to be held for the year (Members only). The Gordon Cross Trophy, commemorating a past president, is awarded on a points system for the highest total in all classes.
