There are no dues and no meetings; we meet to garden. All funds we raise go towards the purchase of plants for these gardens and their maintenance. There is no paid staff. We are dedicated to promoting philanthropy through gardening by bringing beauty to our community for all to enjoy. We believe gardening is generosity in action: it connects people, lifts spirits, and builds a stronger community. Roll your sleeves up and join us!
