Flower show – The Harriston and District Horticultural Society held a busy meeting at the train station in Harriston on June 15. Linda Campbell reported on a very successful garden festival, which was held on June 4 after an absence of two years due to COVID-19. The society celebrated the Year of the Garden by giving away 100 red begonias and tomato plants at the festival. A mini flower and design show was judged by district president Kathy Bouma. This was followed by a talk by member Willa Wick on the topic of dahlias and chrysanthemums. She has taken a great interest in starting plants from seed and gave away a number of her homegrown plants. The meeting ended with refreshments courtesy of Lorna Collins.
