Green Tree Garden Club

The purpose of Green Tree Garden Club is to promote the knowledge and love of gardening by providing education
and activities in the areas of conservation, horticulture and civic improvement.

April 26, 2022 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Frederick Law Olmsted, social reformer and founder of American landscape architecture. Olmsted championed public parks and open spaces, and understood their link to the physical and mental health of communities. The GCA has embraced his work and encourages member clubs to celebrate it as well. Stay tuned for more information about GCA's initiative to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Frederick Law Olmsted.

GREEN TREE'S GARDEN VANDALISM CLUB

While Mac Schley has learned that his gardening skills are not appreciated, he does enjoy perusing our website.

Sammie Sullivan becomes annoyed when her landscape improvements are discouraged.

Additions to this club are welcomed! Please send photos of your garden vandal to mamasullie1@gmail.com

Conferences that could only be offered to a few GCA club members in the past will be available to every club member at no cost. For these conferences, we are assembling a powerhouse of speakers who will share with you their lifelong accumulation of knowledge and wisdom. But, we don’t plan to just tell you or teach you; we plan to involve you in dynamic experiences that will offer you the opportunity to apply what you have heard.
