This is our 100th
Anniversary Year!
As we conclude
our summer activities, we look forward to the Boulder
Garden Club's last outdoor meeting (September). Indoor meeting will
restart in October at the Left Hand Grange in Niwot. (Please
note COVID-19 policy for gatherings on our Meetings
and Programs page.) For our traditional
Plant Sale on the Saturday before Mother's Day, it will be on May 13
in 2023. Location is back at the Unitarian-Universalist Church in
Boulder.
Our indoor meetings are
held at the Left Hand
Grange No. 9, in Niwot. These meetings are on the third Friday
of the month (except for December) from 1 PM to 3 PM. We meet at the Grange in October, November, and December, and February, March, April, and May.
These meetings have speakers presenting on horticultural
topics. At our outdoor meetings in the summer, we usually tour public or member
gardens and share a picnic lunch. See our Meetings and
Programs page for details.
(Please note special dates for February and
December meetings!)
The Boulder
Garden Club is a member of the Colorado State Federation of Garden
Clubs and the National Federation of Garden Clubs. A portion of your
Boulder Garden Club dues ($20 annually) goes to these organizations.
Our civic and
charitable activities are described on our Civic Projects page.
Further
information and club history may be found on our
More Information page.
Please note that
the Boulder Garden Club is a club of individuals interested in
gardening. We can not provide advice or services or make
recommendation on businesses or services. Probably, your best and
perhaps first resource for guidance on plants, care, and conditions
should be the Boulder County Horticultural Agent at the Boulder
County Extension Office in Longmont.
BACKGROUND: The Boulder Garden Club
is the oldest garden club in Colorado. It was first founded
in 1923 to increase knowledge of gardening and to
stimulate and promote interest in home gardens, civic
projects, and beautification of the Boulder area. We are looking
forward to our centennial celebration in 2023!
In 1930, the Boulder
Garden Club became a member of the
National Council of State Garden Clubs, Inc., Rocky Mountain Region,
and the Colorado Federation of Garden Clubs, Inc., Northern
District.
