Plum Beach Garden Club
is a group of
gardeners dedicated
to community
beautification,
environmental
conservation
and education.
The sale of custom engraved bricks in the walk of Old Library Park has been a major source of fund raising for PBGC since 1997. We hope you will buy one or more to honor family, friends, pets, special events, etc. -- which will support our work in the community. Thank you.
About Us
Since its beginning in 1927, Plum Beach Garden Club has been guided by our love of flowers, plants and trees, beautiful gardens and landscapes, birds, butterflies, and bees, and of all the other symbiotic elements of nature.
We have raised awareness of the fragility of our environment by promoting conservation and by sharing our passion and knowledge with others. Through these efforts, we strive to enrich our lives and the lives of others.
We are a 501c3 non-profit organization and a Class 2 Garden Club as defined by the National Garden Clubs. This designation limits our membership to 44 active and associate members. In addition, we recognize five honorary members for their long-standing dedication to the Club.
