The Burnaby Rhododendron and Gardens Society (BRAGS) has existed for approximately 20 years.
The Society's main event is te Rhododendron Festival held at the Shadbolt Centre in Burnaby. This event is a coordinated affair with the City of Burnaby. The Festival is a family event with entertainment, educational talks, flower displays and a plant auction. Of course, there are plants for sale by commercial vendors as well as Garden Groups.
We have a monthly meeting usually with a speaker and time for refreshments. We are also planning a plant sale and the Garden Tour again in 2009.
