Kalmia latifolia in a member's garden

The South Surrey Garden Club exists to advance the horticultural knowledge and practice of its members.  We learn about gardening from our speakers, newsletters, workshops, online knowledge centre, library, field trips, and private garden tours.  

There is always more to learn!  If you want to know more about how to make your garden thrive, why not join us?
