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.  The 2024 show is long gone – but it will be back in 2025 on Saturday 6th September.

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

Coming soon: not long now before the annual show, on Saturday 6th September.  Start thinking about possible entries, you can see the schedule of classes here and download the entry form here.

In the meantime, we have two other events to look forward to. On Tuesday 5th August a very beautiful member’s garden is open for visiting by members and their families only, while on Wednesday 13th August we’ll be visiting Thatchers cider. That one is open to non-members too, but pre-booking and payment is required. For both events see Mary’s emails or contact her for more information.

The Long Ashton Flower Show

The 98th Annual Show took place on Saturday 7th September 2024 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 of the trophy winners at last year’s annual show.  For full picture gallery click here!. Maybe you could be one of the winners this year, so start planning your entry now!

The 2025 schedule and entry forms (PDF) are available here: Schedule, Entry Form.  Full instructions on how to enter are included within the show Schedule.  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.
