Local Group

Suffolk Plant Heritage is a very welcoming and active group with events throughout the year

We have regular talks, two very popular plant fairs with Helmingham Hall Gardens, propagation sessions and a local newsletter. New members are always welcome.

 

 

Our group has meetings on offer every month from September to April, apart from December, with a great line up of speakers. These talks are normally at Wetherden Village Hall, near Stowmarket. 

We organise two very popular plant fairs in partnership with Helmingham Hall Gardens in May and September. These are a great day out in a stunning venue, and help raise funds to support Plant Heritage's plant conservation work. 

We also hold regular propagation sessions where you can learn more about how to make more of your plants and bulbs. 

Our local newsletter - the Suffolk Group Journal - is published twice a year in the spring and autumn.

Find out what's coming up on the events page, and take a look at our local group website.
