The Japanese Garden Society, founded in 1993, now has some 700 members. It is for anyone with an interest in Japanese gardens, members receiving a high quality quarterly journal ‘Shakkei’. Regular meetings, lectures and garden visits are held throughout the country and the Society runs regular trips to Japan.

Other activities include assistance at RHS Shows and other events, and gaining practical experience in garden maintenance. Recently members of the Society have designed and constructed gardens in a public park, at a hospice and most recently at Norwich Cathedral.

The Society is able to offer lectures on Japanese gardens to other organisations and groups.
