What Members Are Saying
First of all, it is great to get together with folks like me who are interested in plants and gardening.
The speakers are top rated, well informed, and have years of experience in the industry, or traveling or with their home garden.
There are always interesting people to talk about who are like me, back yard gardeners.
Last, but not least, is having a good cup of coffee and a home made goodie. Delicious!

Over 30 years ago, I moved from a tiny city lot with just a patch of lawn to a fair-sized Etobicoke lot with a front yard, a back yard and a side yard.
Knowing nothing about gardening, I joined the EHS for information and inspiration. There I found a friendly and welcoming community of gardeners who were keen to share their knowledge, their experience and their plants. EHS has nurtured my love of plants and an appreciation for caring for our biodiversity.

Always Be Learning, that's what's important to me, at least for the topics I am interested in!
The monthly speakers Etobicoke Hort. provides does this for me in a stimulating way, on such a variety of gardening & ecological concerns.
Even on Zoom, the learning continues and grows and invigorates me to keep on gardening, often in new ways.
