WELCOME TO THE VENICE AREA GARDEN CLUB

The Venice Area Garden Club seeks to develop our members' knowledge of Florida gardening and participate in civic beautification, designing, planting and maintaining gardens throughout the community. We provide continuing education and resources for gardening, horticultural and floral design; and support the preservation of our fragile Florida environment.

DONATIONS NEEDED:

The Horticultural Committee is brainstorming about additional plant sale items in anticipation of some plant loss. Most of us have some garden art that needs sprucing up-a little paint, a replacement screw, a leak patched. Lots of us have rusted plant stands that could look like new. Get rid of those “some day” projects, bring to Karen’s (311 Pameto Rd, Nokomis) and we will fix up for the sale.

Consider joining the VAGC! Attend a meeting and discover all we have to offer.

Snowbirds are some of our favorite members.
