become a redding garden club member

The RGC is delighted to welcome new members. We love to see our club grow!

Our membership year runs from July through June. Annual dues are $35. If you join between January and June, dues are half price.

1. Come to one meeting as a guest and pay the $5 guest fee. After the meeting, you'll get an orientation packet and you can join the RGC.
2. If you can't attend a meeting, you can still join. Contact our membership chair, who willl set up a time to meet with you. You'll get a personal introduction to our club and activities. After that, you'll be able to join.

All RGC members participate on at least one committee or fundraising activity, such as our Plant Sale, November Boutique, and Civic Beautification Committee. Members with gardens also contribute to the member donation section of our Plant Sale held each May (a sell-out!). Periodically (usually once a year), we're asked to contribute to the light luncheon held before our meetings. Learn more by talking to our membership chair.

You'll have no problem finding committees that match your interests -- or try something new! 

• Civic Beautification: Our largest committee, CB volunteers help plant and maintain nineteen garden sites and containers. (Containers are great for beginners! ) Members with time constraints can become floaters and help at sites as needed.
• Plant Sale: Volunteers work on publicity, buying, sales, set-up, cashier, and break-down.
• November Boutique: Help with publicity, set-up, sales, or breakdown. You can also participate in craft workshops throughout the year.
• Youth Activities: We love helping kids learn to garden! Bring your ideas to this committee and get families involved in gardening.
• Tussie Mussies: Meet throughout the year to create small flower arrangements for hospice patients.
• Conservation: Help spread awareness about controlling invasives, attracting pollinators, and planting natives.

If you’re interested in our activities but unable to participate actively, consider becoming a Friend of the Redding Garden Club. It’s a great way to stay in touch and support the RGC without having to fulfill membership requirements. It also makes a nice gift for friends, fellow gardeners, young mothers, and anyone new to town.

Friends of the Redding Garden Club receive our monthly newsletter, learn about speakers and programs in advance, and are eligible for field trips, all while participating in club activities as time and ability permit.

Become a Friend: The cost is $25 a year (July through June). There is also a $5 guest fee
if you attend a meeting. Please note: members have priority when field trips and workshops are limited.
