Theme: “Love Our Natives—Protect Our Environment”
Welcome to the Fort Lauderdale Garden Club:
The mission of our Club is to further the education of our members and the public in the fields of gardening, horticulture, botany, floral design, environmental awareness through the conservation of natural resources, civic beautification, nature studies, landscape design, and to instill in our youth the love of gardening and the respect for and protection of the environment.
As you go through this website you will find the detailed information on all our meetings and events for the 2011-2012 Club Year. Our monthly meetings feature great speakers and wonderful learning opportunities. Learning and exchange of ideas and friendship will take place during all our events.
As a Club we support various organizations which include Habitat for Humanity, the Sensory Garden at the Lighthouse for the Blind, and an extensive youth education program which culminates in camperships to FFGC’s environmental camp in Central Florida. We are partners with the State Park in various events.
No matter what your interests are, I am sure there is a place in our organization with kindred spirits. We are a Federated Club and therefore we have all the resources of the national organization backing us.
Our monthly meetings, which are held at our beautiful center inside Birch State Park, are free to our members, friends and the general public. We look forward to meeting you at one of our events.
