One of the things I enjoy most about belonging to a garden club is community outreach. Sure, we love planting, educational programs, gardening and floral design, but members do so many nice things for the community, especially during the holiday season. Garden club members are generous with their time and talents, and seem to have boundless energy -- despite the hectic holiday season. If you want to make interesting new friends, learn new skills and have lots of fun volunteering, join a garden club! You will be richly rewarded.

Members decorated the new Hospice House for the holidays, both inside... |
|
and outside. |
|
We helped 5th grade girls make fresh arrangements to take home for the holidays.
|
|
The girls did a beautiful job. |
|
We spent time with senior residents making centerpieces for their dining room.
|
|
They enjoyed the activities.

At another school we helped after-school garden club members, both girls and boys,
make fresh arrangements to take home for the holidays.

|
They used natural materials from the garden to make beautiful designs. |
