Since 1919, the aim of the Long Ashton Horticultural Society has been to promote flower and vegetable growing, and to bring people together to learn from each other. The centrepiece of our year is our Annual Show, a community event, for villagers to share with each other the amazing things that they have grown, cooked, photographed or made.  You just missed our 2025 show – but it will be back in September 2026 which will be our very special 100th show!

We also hold regular events throughout the year, including visits and talks. You can see more planned events here. 

You just missed this:

Our next event is our AGM on Thursday 13th November. Does that sound boring? Well, it won’t be! Because it is accompanied by a talk by Fiona Warin under the title ‘Dig for Victory’. Fiona will take us back to 1939 when the sirens rang out over a country desperate to increase food production. Maybe there will be lessons for the present day, too! So don’t miss this one – it’s free to members, £5 to non-members on the door.

 The Long Ashton Flower Show

The 99th Annual Show took place on Saturday 6th September 2025 in the Village Hall. We thank everyone who entered the various classes, our members who helped on the day (or with setting up the night before), those who baked the delicious home-made cakes served by our team of volunteers, and of course all who attended the show.

Here are just a few pictures from this year’s annual show.  See the full gallery of photos showing both some of the amazing entries and the brilliant prize-winners: click here. Maybe you could be one of the winners next year, so start planning your entry now!

The 2025 schedule and entry forms (PDF) can still be viewed here: Schedule, Entry Form.  Those will give you pretty good guide to next year, too.  Or explore this site further and follow the links to find out more about the Show and how to become a member of the Society.
