The West Palm Beach Garden Club was founded in 1928 and has served the Palm Beaches for over 70 years. We welcome
men and women who are interested in gardening, horticulture, conservation, flower arranging, and other related topics. Our
members range from novice gardeners to Master Gardeners from all over the United States as well as South Florida.

The West Palm Beach Garden Club is comprised of 4 circles which meet monthly from October through May. The Circles
meet as a combined group in our club house twice a year.

The West Palm Beach Garden Club landscapes several Habitat for Humanity houses every year. We assist the Palm Beach Zoo
by designing and planting container gardens and maintaining topiaries. We lead a Junior Gardener Group called the "Bud
Busters", and sponsor scholarships both to Camp Wekiva, and environment-oriented youth camp at Wekiva State Park in
Central Florida and as S.E.E.K., a summer environmental seminar for teens at the University of Florida.

We hold an annual Standard Flower Show featuring horticulture and floral designs and "Fun with Flowers", a floral design
workshop for beginners. Both are open to the public.
