Many GTGC members took part in an amazing virtual SMHC in late September.
There were numerous outstanding presentations, with interesting Q&A sessions following most. If you had to miss it, you can find highlights and videos on the GCA website by clicking the link below. "Our goal is for you to envision what is possible in your garden and inspire you to cultivate more beauty and creativity in your life." Mission accomplished!! |

The GCA is taking advantage of social distancing requirements by offering all club members a series of exciting opportunities to learn and grow.
Next year, 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. |
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” ~ Benjamin Franklin
