Welcome to the homepage of the Yapton Cottage Gardeners Society website.  We are a very active Society - each year we hold four shows, where members and guests have the opportunity to show their flowers, fruit and vegetables, floral art, cookery and photos.  We also always have a large number of competition classes for children.  As well as our shows, we hold members' meetings when speakers entertain us with talks and slide shows on a variety of topics, some horticultural and some of general local or topical interest.  We hold two plant sales a year and put on entertainment for our members and guests in the form of barn dances and annual concerts.  Please have a look at our events calendar

NEXT EVENT: Autumn Show 7 October 2017 2.00 - 4.00 pm Yapton and Ford Village Hall.  Your last chance of the year to enter your produce - you never know, you might win first prize.  If you have any pumpkins or marrows, or any late flowering plants in the garden, why not have a go?  If not, we have something that may suit you in our floral art, photography, cookery or handcrafts sections. There are plenty of classes for children too - see our Children page. Alternatively just come along to admire others' hard work, enjoy a nice cup of tea and a piece of David's legendary cake, and catch up with old friends or make some new ones. Staging 8.15 - 10.00 am.

We always welcome new members -  please see our Membership section for details of how to join, at a cost of only £6 per year per household.
