'Beautifying Riverdale' since 1916

Would you like to broaden your gardening knowledge?

Why not explore membership at the Riverdale Horticultural Society (RHS).  Our monthly meetings feature experts who speak on a variety of subjects that will not only educate but inspire.  Learn about growing, nurturing and loving all sorts of plants along with the insects and animals that contribute to plant health.  

We are a friendly group of novice and experienced gardeners who have an interest in the natural world whether that is a sprawling garden, allotment plot, or a balcony pot.

You will meet like-minded people who are interested in learning what’s new along with what’s always worked and why it’s always worked. 

We meet the second Wednesday of each month in the evening at Frankland Community Centre for about 90 minutes and most meetings are in person and by Zoom. We meet from September to June and take a break in July and August to enjoy the fruits of our labour (and sometimes also fruit!)

RHS also offers a very popular worm castings fundraiser in the spring (worm castings are also affectionately known as ‘black gold’).  More information on that will be available on this site and Facebook. https://www.facebook.com/groups/riverdalehorticulturalsociety

Gardening is one of those activities where you ‘see’ benefits from any time you devote. Unlike an office job, your efforts are tangible and immediate; whether that’s digging, planting, pruning or weeding. It’s VERY gratifying and satisfying to see the effects from just a little effort. Did you know gardening has been proven to be good for your physical and mental health?

Come grow with us. 

We offer individual memberships for $20/year or family memberships for $25/year
