CONSERVATION PLEDGE

 I pledge to protect and conserve the natural resources of the planet earth and promise to promote education so we may become caretakers of our air, water, forests, land, and wildlife.

 

 

The Benefits of Belonging to a Garden Club

The rewards of joining a local club within the National Garden Clubs umbrella go far beyond the pleasures of growing things.  Becoming a member almost anywhere in the U.S. or affiliated international locations is simple and inexpensive. Yet membership opens the door for you to explore a wide range of common interests with people around the world and across the generations.

Grow your knowledge via top-notch educational programs and schools.

Garden for a purpose with community service projects, including disaster relief efforts and skill-building activities in eco-scaping, community beautification, etc.

Participate in the State Garden Clubs network for learning, service and community-building.

Promote environmental causes on a local, regional and national basis.

Grow your own edibles or launch a community edible garden, for tastier, healthier, less expensive local fare.

Learn to make the most of resources, including your available garden space.

Enhance your garden's sustainability and reduce maintenance by planting "native" rain gardens and saving water.

Nurture your inner artist with floral design study and flower shows.

Learn from those with experience, and pass along your own passion and know-how to new generations of gardeners.

Share your love of gardening and

have fun!
