Join the National Vegetable Society

What does the National Vegetable Society offer you?

  • Firstly contact with people who can help - people who understand the problems of growing vegetables.
  • Chances to meet and discuss with enthusiastic growers, and in some cases exhibitors.
  • It offers you the chance to join a Panel of Lecturers, or the chance to be a Certificated National Vegetable Judge, respected across the whole country.
  • Each year every member will receive a free packet of seed - usually a new variety for trial.
  • Each member will receive the Quarterly Bulletin of the National Vegetable Society, containing interesting articles on vegetable growing and kindred topics, along with the news of Society events from the tip of Scotland down to the Southernmost point of England.
  • There are the Branch Newsletters dealing more with the "local" aspects, these are quarterly. These will highlight local seminars and workshops, demonstration stands at the various shows, and give you a chance to be "part of the Society".
  • Recently the Society issued an Annual Directory, listing all office holders in the National Executive Committee (NEC), Branch Committees and District Associations, along with a current list of Qualified Judges and respected Lecturers. This is circulated to ALL members after any major changes have warranted a re-print.
  • Finally the Society's Constitution, again circulated to all members after any changes (passed at the AAGM) have been made.
