Discover the beauty of gardening as an art form with the Tumbarumba and Districts Garden Club! This not-for-profit community group welcomes garden enthusiasts from all walks of life, uniting them in their shared passion for transforming gardens into breathtaking works of art. Whether you’re an experienced green thumb or just starting your gardening journey, this club is the perfect place to learn and grow.
Join us on the first Thursday of every month at 5.30pm, as we gather at the charming Tumbarumba bowling club. Engage in lively discussions, exchange gardening tips, and be inspired by the creativity of fellow members. After the meeting, indulge in a delightful Chinese dinner, enjoying the camaraderie of like-minded garden enthusiasts.
One of the highlights of the Tumbarumba and Districts Garden Club is the renowned Tumbarumba Spring Flower Festival, held annually around the end of October. During this blooming extravaganza, the locals generously open their magnificent private gardens to the public, offering a rare glimpse into their artistic creations. The festival goes beyond flowers and incorporates an enchanting Sculpture Exhibition and an inspiring Art and Photography Exhibition throughout the picturesque town of Tumbarumba.
Beyond the joy of gardening, the club also values its commitment to giving back to the community. Through the Tumbarumba Spring Flower Festival, funds are raised for various charitable causes, making every blossom a symbol of hope and support.
In addition to our monthly meetings and the Tumbarumba Spring Flower Festival, the Tumbarumba and Districts Garden Club is proud to hold regular day trips and welcome inspiring speakers to further enrich our members’ gardening knowledge and experiences.
