🌸 Celebrating 40 Years of the Camden Haven Garden Club 🌸

Yesterday, Laurieton United Services Club were proud to host the 40th Anniversary celebrations of the Camden Haven Garden Club – a milestone celebrating four decades of friendship, community and a shared love of gardening. A special thank you to Port Macquarie-Hastings Mayor Adam Roberts for taking the time to attend yesterday’s celebrations and help recognise this significant milestone.

Founded in 1985, the club began with a small group of local gardening enthusiasts who wanted to create a space where people could come together to share ideas, learn from one another and foster a love of gardening. Over the past 40 years, it has flourished into a thriving community organisation, offering members a diverse calendar of guest speakers, educational workshops, garden visits, bus trips, flower shows and community projects. The club has also published regular newsletters, supported local initiatives and remained a welcoming place for both experienced gardeners and those just beginning their gardening journey.

Yesterday’s celebration also recognised the incredible people who helped establish the club, with special acknowledgement given to Foundation President Joy Ward, Treasurer Kath Warren and Secretary Lesley Hindly, whose vision, passion and dedication were instrumental in laying the foundations for what has become one of the Camden Haven’s longest-standing community organisations. Their leadership helped create a club that has continued to grow and thrive for 40 years.

A heartfelt congratulations to all past and present members who have contributed to the club’s success over the years. Your passion, friendship and commitment have created a wonderful legacy that continues to enrich our local community.

We were honoured to share in your special day and wish the Camden Haven Garden Club many more years of growth, friendship and blooming success. 🌿💚
