Welcome to Holford Gardeners Group . . .

Holford Gardeners Group is a relatively young group and was formed in August 2003. Currently we have a membership of 118 and each monthly meeting attracts 60 to 70 members and visitors. The Group serves not only those with a gardening interest but also acts as a social nucleus attracting members and visitors from all of our neighbouring villages. We are affiliated to the Royal Horticultural Society and the Somerset Federation of Gardening Clubs, one of our members serves on the Committee of the Federation and we have a member who is now the newly elected Chairman of the Federation. Our village of Holford is situated on the north Somerset coast and at the foot of the range of hills known as The Quantocks - ‘An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’. Nearby is the coastline designated as ‘A Biological Site of Special Scientific Interest’ where rock formations of the Jurassic period can be found and are considered to be of international geological importance.

Our logo features a group of pine trees planted during 1948 above our village on the higher slopes of the hills. These were as a memorial “To commemorate the men and women of Holford and Kilve who served in the war of 1939 - 1945”

. . . growing with friendship.
