Our Mission

The Modesto Garden Club's objective is to educate, impart knowledge and skills of landscape design, flora culture, agriculture, trees, pest management, and ornamental horticulture. We desire to instill the joy of gardening to Club members, school children, senior citizens and the community-at-large.

Our monthly general meetings provide opportunities to learn more about gardening and to socialize with friends. These meetings are held on the second Thursday from September-November and January-May, and feature local speakers at the Learn & Grow session at 10:30 am and more experienced and knowledgeable speakers at the general meeting that starts at 11:45 am and ends at 1:30 pm. These presentations cover a variety of floral and gardening topics depending on the speaker's area of expertise. The meetings are held at Trinity United Presbyterian Church, 1600 Carver Rd, Modesto, and are free to Club members. Guests attend for free. Hospitality time is from 10:00 am to 11:20 am.
