The Alpine Garden Society was founded in 1929 and has grown to become one of the largest specialist garden societies in the world with its aim to promote an interest in alpine plants in cultivation and in their wild habitats.

The Ulster Group of the AGS is  the oldest, dating from 1938, and has strong links with the other Groups in Ireland, in Dublin and Cork. - A  Short History of the Ulster Group of the Alpine Garden Societyby John McWhirter, which appeared in the first edition of the Newsletter can be read here.
