Carlsbad Garden Club

Our Club has been in existence since 1932, having broken away from the Carlsbad Women’s Club. We are, by District standards, a small Club with 1 current member who joined in 1962 with others joining all of the time to our current membership of 60. We have both males and females. We range in age, background, ability to garden and size of garden, but we can all come together and enjoy each other’s company based on our common passion: gardening. We meet monthly from September to June as a Club with a combination of programs: speakers, field trips, fund raising activities, Annual Garden Tour, Carlsbad Community and Palomar District events. We also have a Discovery Group that meets monthly all year long at members’ gardens or go on field trips for more specific gardening interests. This year, we are actively pursuing contacts with other Garden Clubs. We also have begun a commitment to volunteer with the Discovery Center of the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation hare in Carlsbad. Overall, we are a small therefore, quite personal, active Club open to new ideas and new members.
