about all areas of horticulture. We are composed of 18 garden clubs,
five associate plant societies, and three youth garden clubs.
We
are here for those who have both a green thumb and brown thumb!
We
are here for those who have an interest in conservation and the
environment.
We are here for those who want to learn how to garden and those
who have been gardening for many years.
We are here for you…..Contact us and we can put you in touch with
a garden club that will suit your needs, or help you to form a
new club.
The
Charlotte Council is a member of The Garden Club of North Carolina,
Inc. and National Garden Clubs. All of our members clubs belong
to both those organizations.
The
headquarters of the Charlotte Council are located in an older home
at 1820 East Seventh St. in the Elizabeth Neighborhood. A home that
was built in the 1920’s when the Elizabeth area of Charlotte was
at the end of the trolley line. We do rent our house for small weddings
and events. This helps us to maintain it and the garden.
Our
garden club year begins in September and runs through May. The meetings
are held on the 4th Wednesday of the month (third in November) and
is open and free to the public. Our speakers represent all aspects
of gardening and the environment.

Happy
Gardening
