"Ninfield Flower Group is a friendly, active group, with around 50 members.  It holds monthly meetings,  which range from demonstrations, classes and workshops together with an annual dinner.  It also organises occasional outings to places such as Chelsea Flower Show,  Hampton Court Flower Show and major flower festivals.

Ninfield Flower Group has been organising flower festivals for many years and has raised over £45,000 for charity over the years. Members have also taken part in festivals for other flower clubs, local churches and Sussex Area Flower Festivals, as well as representing Sussex Area at the National Competitions in Edinburgh.  In recent years, several members have been invited to arrange flowers at both Westminster Abbey and Southwark Cathedral.

The Group is affiliated to Sussex Area of NAFAS, which in its turn is affiliated to the National Association of Flower Arranging Societies (NAFAS).
