Know –
Investigate Adopt-A-Park programs in your community. A growing number
of municipal and county governments have established programs to promote
community involvement with the maintenance and beautification of
neighborhood parks and recreational facilities. Knowing leads to Sowing!
Sow – Involve your club by
Adopting a Park in your community. Put to practice the knowledge that
you have as a garden club member. Your knowledge gained from NGC
educational programs of landscape design, gardening, horticulture and
environmental concerns can help save a park. Sowing leads to Growing!
Grow – Inspire others to
Adopt-A- Park. Most Adopt-A-Park programs recognize participating
organizations with signage posted in the adopted park. This recognition
inspires others to also participate and thus strengthens the community.
FFGC and NGC offer several awards related to civic and community
involvement, so your club gets a double dose of recognition that
inspires us all to Grow.
