Manor Nurseries

The Angmering Horticultural Club

Angmering Horticultural Club is an independent, amateur, non-profit-making club, run by and for its members. The club first met in September 2006, and currently has over 50 members. The club is managed by a committee elected each year at the AGM.

Meetings are held by kind permission of Manor Nurseries at 7.30pm on the first Tuesday of each month at the Manor Nurseries restaurant, High Street, Angmering, West Sussex, unless otherwise stated in the programme.

The format of the meetings is relaxed, but normally consists of a talk or demonstration followed by a coffee break - a good chance to get to know fellow members! After the break there is time to discuss topics of current or seasonal interest, and for the speaker to answer questions.

Angmering Horticultural Club's annual membership fee is £12 (or £20 for couples). New members/visitors are most welcome. The entrance fee of £2 will be reimbursed if they decide to become a member.
