There's no doubt that a few can accomplish a lot. Our small group of members have proven this. Here's a recap:

The National Garden Club (NGC) initiative to plant 165,000 trees for each year of the 2020-2021 term continues. Project deadline: May 1, 2021

Each member, plant one tree.

Native plants are encouraged, but all trees will be reported.

We are counting all trees planted by you personally.
