Eynsham Garden Club was founded in 1981 – with a broad interest in gardens and gardening, both locally and further afield. Members join an experienced and generous network for £7.50 a year. Visitors are welcome at £1.00 per meeting. Our youngest member was enrolled in her crib ... and our Father Christmas is worth turning out for.

We usually meet on the second Wednesday of the month at 7:30 pm, in the Village Hall, Back Lane. Key story from 2007 here: 'A Cottage in Mill Street'. Day visits and other events are held on Saturdays.
