About the Cobourg Horticultural Society

The Cobourg Horticultural Society also known as the Cobourg Garden Club is a volunteer organization that promotes gardening within the community. Annual membership provides an opportunity to meet others who share the mutual interest of hobby gardening. We are a membership of over one hundred gardeners who share a passion for gardening and growing plants.

The Cobourg Horticultural Society was founded in 1860 and continues to promote interest in gardening in the community of Cobourg. The white rose is the official flower of Cobourg Garden Club.

At our monthly meetings we have experts to talk about a variety of subjects, from perennials to bulbs to planting borders. Most speakers include slide shows and willingly answer questions from members.

We have a Library of Gardening Books available for the members. We publish a Newsletter regularly as well as a Yearbook outlining coming events.

Our Club takes an active role in the community beautification by maintaining various flowerbeds in Cobourg and by promoting the creation and maintenance of green spaces in the town. The Club provides educational opportunities and advocates sound environmental practices.
