District 9 AGM April 25, 2026
"Gardening in a Changing Climate"
Please feel free to share this invitation with all of your society members — everyone is welcome to attend.
We are excited to officially share the program for the District 9 Spring Annual Meeting. The Port Colborne and Ridgeway & District Garden Clubs have put together what promises to be a wonderful day for members across the district. This is a great opportunity to connect with fellow gardeners, meet members from other societies, and enjoy a day of learning and friendly competition together.
One of the highlights of the day will be a Flower and Photography Competition, with classes designed so that there is truly something for everyone to enter and enjoy. Please take a few minutes to review the Show Schedule for the competition rules.
To help things run smoothly on the day of the event, we encourage exhibitors to pre-fill the Competition Registration Sheet and bring it with you along with your entries. Entry tags are also attached for your convenience.
