A huge thank you to everyone who helped with the summer show and everyone who entered the competitions. The competition entries were all very much appreciated. Congratulations to all those who won a prize. If you didn’t win this time, better luck next year.
Also, thank you to everyone who came to the show to see the exhibits. We hope you had a good time and look forward to seeing you again at the Spring show.

Nailsea & District Horticultural Society
Our Mission
The Society exists to encourage all aspects of gardening within Nailsea and the surrounding districts. It does this by organising flower shows, holding a series of monthly talks on gardening subjects and arranging occasional outings for members to gardens and other places of interest.
What We Do
A spring show is held on the first Saturday in April and a summer show on the first Saturday in August. The shows are held in Nailsea School, Mizzymead Road, Nailsea.
The Society’s monthly gardening talks are held in the United Reformed Church Hall, Stockway North, Nailsea on the second Wednesday in each month starting at 7.30pm. These talks take place in each month except August, when there is a summer break, and November, when the Society holds its Annual General Meeting.
For this year’s schedule of gardening talks, take a look at the Gardening Talks page.
