The Clinton Horticultural Society is apart of the Ontario Horticultural Association. The purpose of the Ontario Horticultural Association is to "provide leadership and assist in the promotion of education and interest in all areas of horticulture and related environmental issues in Ontario, through an expanding network of horticul- tural societies dedicated to the beautifica- tion of their communities." Some of the association's projects include beautifying local parks, planting boxes in downtown areas and creating and maintaining public gardens around govemment buildings and hospitals. It also produces a newsletter called the Trillium, which all society mem- bers may submit to, and holds an annual convention which offers educational opportunities. The association is a volun- teer, charitable organization and, as such, it relies on the support of its members, volun- teers and charitable donations. Currently, there are 282 horticultural societies in Ontario. The Clinton Horticultural Society is in District 8 of the Ontario Horticultural Asso- ciation which covers Bruce, Grey and Huron counties. It has been in existence since 1890 and its floral emblem is the Clin- tonia Borealis. From March until Novem- ber, the society meets on the third Wednes- day of the month at 7:30 p.m. at the OMFRA office located at 100 Don Street in Clinton. The membership fee costs $5.
