Our History

The Valley Gardeners Club was formed back in 1983 by a few dedicated and passionate members. On the occasion of the Club's 25th Anniversary in 2008, past member Anne Hope mused about the future. Her words still hold true today:

"As we look ahead to the future of the club, we are sensitive of the challenges of our changing environment and its effects on our lifestyles, but gardening and our club have so much to offer us as individuals and communities that we must find ways and members, to continue for another 25 years."

The Valley Gardeners Club is also part of the Nova Scotia Association of Garden Clubs (NSAGC), which represents gardeners across the province. Together with the NSAGC and the 60+ member clubs, we promote gardening activities, share our knowledge with new gardeners, and create opportunities to enjoy each other's company.
