Le 1er<\/sup> f\u00e9vrier 1885, un groupe de professionnels et d\u2019amateurs de jardinage de Gembloux et des environs, suivant en cela un mouvement d\u00e9j\u00e0 avanc\u00e9 dans d\u2019autres r\u00e9gions du pays, se r\u00e9unit pour stimuler le progr\u00e8s horticole en cr\u00e9ant la \u00abSoci\u00e9t\u00e9 d\u2019Horticulture pratique de Gembloux\u00bb qui prit comme devise \u00abUnion et Progr\u00e8s\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

La cotisation \u00e9tait de 3 BEF par an.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gembloux \u00e9tait alors, comme il l\u2019est encore aujourd\u2019hui, un centre de grandes cultures agricoles et d\u2019industries. L\u2019horticulture n\u2019y \u00e9tant gu\u00e8re \u00e0 l\u2019honneur, il y avait beaucoup \u00e0 faire et les dirigeants de la nouvelle Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 se mirent imm\u00e9diatement et courageusement au travail. 
Ces d\u00e9vou\u00e9s de la premi\u00e8re heure \u00e9taient : Joseph AUSSEMS, chef de culture \u00e0 l\u2019Institut Agricole de l\u2019Etat, Henri BAZIER de Ferooz, DELVAUX de Mont-St-Guibert, GERMIAT de Limelette, Jean SCHLAG, agent comptable \u00e0 l\u2019Institut Agricole, Nestor SEGHERS, chef de culture au Chenoy, Joseph SCHEPKENS de Gembloux, Gustave THONON, jardinier \u00e0 Ernage, Henri VAN AUDIENAERDE, chef de culture \u00e0 Jodoigne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Le dernier de ces v\u00e9t\u00e9rans, Gustave THONON, est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 en juillet 1950. Il avait \u00e9t\u00e9 proclam\u00e9 Vice-Pr\u00e9sident d\u2019Honneur lors de l\u2019Assembl\u00e9e g\u00e9n\u00e9rale de janvier 1950.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L\u2019activit\u00e9 de la nouvelle Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 s\u2019est manifest\u00e9e par une premi\u00e8re et modeste exposition organis\u00e9e en 1886. Une nouvelle manifestation de ce genre, mise sur pied en 1890, remporta un r\u00e9el succ\u00e8s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vers 1895, on constata un certain fl \u00e9chissement dans l\u2019activit\u00e9 de la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 ; c\u2019est alors qu\u2019entr\u00e8rent en sc\u00e8ne deux membres \u00e9minents qui exerceront, dans la suite, une action d\u00e9cisive sur le d\u00e9veloppement de la Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 : les regrett\u00e9s Ren\u00e9 JADOUL et \u00c9lie FRAN\u00c7AIS. La Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 reprendra alors sa marche ascendante et, progressivement, intensifi era son activit\u00e9, pour atteindre l\u2019\u00e9panouissement qu\u2019elle a connu apr\u00e8s la seconde guerre mondiale.<\/p>\n
