Welcome to the Snitterfield Garden Club website

 

We are based in the beautiful South Warwickshire village of Snitterfield ( www.snitterfield.com ) just north east of Stratford on Avon. Snitterfield Garden Club has been in existence for 25 years and is a friendly and sociable group drawing members from surrounding villages and towns further afield.

 

The club offers an excellent programme of events, which in the winter months includes interesting and informative talks on gardens and gardening and in the summer months visits to beautiful gardens. In recent years our speakers have included Fergus Garrett of Great Dixter fame, Sir Roddy Llewellyn, Val Bourne and Chris Beardshaw.

 

The club is affiliated to the RHS which entitles us to

• Group entry to an RHS garden once a year

• Monthly copy of ‘The Garden’ magazine
