The Australian Garden History Society website. (after approx. 12 September, 2001)

The primary concern of the Australian Garden History Society is to promote interest in and research into historic gardens. It is also concerned, through the study of garden history, with the promotion of proper standards of design and maintenance, and with the conservation of plants that are in danger of being lost to cultivation. It aims to look at gardens and gardening in a wide historic, literary, artistic and scientific context.

The AGHS publishes a journal six times per year, conducts seminars and lectures and holds an annual conference. Garden visits, working bees in historic gardens, hands-on garden demonstrations and social functions are also on offer.

The Society has branches in all states of Australia.
