MEMBERSHIP OPEN TO ALL
Although Kensington Gardeners' Club meets in Kensington and trips start and end there, membership is open to ALL. We are affiliated to The London Garden Society. Many of our members, past and present, have gone on to win prizes in the LGS London wide competition.
Go to the VISITS page to see photos of our recent trip to Parham House and Gardens.
