Our next meeting is on Wednesday evening, 10th June (7:30 pm): “Herbs and their various uses” is the title of the talk to be given by Paula Stone, which will be very helpful to those of us who grow garden herbs (but don’t always know how to use them fully!)

All our meetings are held in the Margaret Harker Hall, Yarmouth Road, Blofield, starting at 7:30 p.m. Free light refreshments are offered after our gardening-related talks. Do join us! £10 annual membership which includes 8 talks and entry into the Summer Show, or guest fee is £2:50 per meeting.

The 2026 Summer Show will be held at the Margaret Harker Hall in Blofield on Saturday 11th July. Members will place their exhibits in the hall between 9 – 11 am. The judges then review all the entries, checking them against the schedule as well as looking for the healthiest or best presented exhibits. The doors will open at 2 pm when all are warmly invited to look around the exhibits, enjoy refreshments and try their hand at the tombola and raffle. The summer show schedule is available to view here.

The Club’s AGM was held on Wednesday evening, 11th March, 2026, at the Margaret Harker Hall. There were 34 attendees including committee members, and the President, Mrs Sylvia Nelthorpe, thanked all for attending. The programme of meetings was outlined, which all agreed sounded very varied and interesting, and changes to the Summer Show schedule discussed. Sadly the long-standing Chair, Mrs June Drake, and Treasurer, Mr Alan Drake, confirmed that they would be retiring from these roles and they were thanked for their exemplary service to the Club, and presented with some gifts in thanks. Three new members have joined the committee, which is greatly appreciated. Everyone was then invited to stay for a light buffet and general knowledge quiz – all in all a very sociable and enjoyable evening.

Welcome to the website of the Blofield and District Gardening Club. If you live in Blofield in Norfolk or one of the surrounding areas and have an interest in gardening then this is the club for you. We meet once a month on the second Wednesday of most months for a presentation on some aspect of gardening provided by good quality speakers. These meetings are also an opportunity to socialise with other members with similar interests, to gain advice on gardening matters and to compete with other members in our monthly competition. We have also arranged discounts at local gardening suppliers. Why not join us at one of our meetings to try us out.
