Hundon Gardening Club
Hundon Gardening Club (HGC) was formed in 1992.
The aims of HGC are to educate, inform and give new ideas to members and visitors with presentations and demonstrations given by members and guest speakers. Outings of interest and social events are also organised.
We organise an Annual Show. Its many classes are open to non-members.
Meetings are held on the third Thursday of each month in Hundon Village Hall.
The club has a sub-committee that plants and tends the borders and pots around the village hall and shop and in the community. These are cared for all year round and have been funded by Broxted Solar Community Fund, Hundon Village Hall and Community Shop.
We have a thriving, active and friendly club that is always open to new members.
