The Society holds an AGM followed by lunch and a talk by a visiting guest speaker.  This is a great opportunity to mix with many other members in a relaxed social atmosphere.

The 2025 AGM will be held at Gupshill Manor in Tewkesbury on Wednesday, 26th March.  After the formal AGM business discussed during the morning, we will be joined by a guest speaker in the afternoon.

Throughout the year, the Society holds a number of workshops run by prestigeous tutors who have included Billy Showell, Julia Trickey, Roger Reynolds, Ann Swan and Simon Williams.  

Visits are also arranged to gardens as well as "behind the scenes" tours of museums and collections including Birmingham Botanic Gardens, Picton Gardens near Malvern, Batsford Arboretum and Frampton Court.
