The Ferny Creek Horticultural Society

Welcome to the Ferny Creek Horticultural Society.

The Society was established in 1932, and is a self-funded volunteer organisation that is constituted to:

  • Promote and encourage the study, practice and development of horticulture.
  • Bring together members of the community with a common interest in horticulture.
  • Provide and operate facilities for these purposes.

The Society’s 10-acre ornamental garden is situated in the Dandenong Ranges in close proximity to Sherbrooke Forest at an elevation of 500 metres.  In addition to the wide variety of established plants, there are also splendid views of the nearby hills with the Great Dividing Range in the distance.
