PLANT SALE COMMITTEE
Managing our annual plant sale -- our biggest fundraiser

Our plant sale is our annual fundraising event and significantly contributes to our club's operating expenses each year.
Funds raised help to cover the cost of our speakers, summer tours, the Garden Themed Make-and-Take event, our Holiday Party, our community service project at the Veteran's Memorial Park at Aronson Park, our annual benevolence giving, and more.
​
Plants are donated from our club members, including vegetables, annuals, perennials, and houseplants.​
​
This is an "all hands on deck" event and we look forward to every member contributing their plants and/or time to make this event successful!
Join us in helping to raise funds for our club!

Every May, LAGC members plant red, white, and blue annuals at the Veterans Memorial Gardens at Aronson Park and maintain the flowerbeds throughout the summer. Volunteers are needed to organize and coordinate the flower planting in May and for helping with the weekly maintenance.

Sharing kindness and uplifting those in need in our club
Our Sunshine Program Committee accepts requests from club members to give "sunshine" to members in need of support, encouragement, or sympathy.​​
When you volunteer for this committee, not only do you get to share Sunshine with others, but you will definitely get back Sunshine too!
Volunteers to help with ordering and delivering "Sunshine" are needed.
