Connect Your Garden to the Community

And get everyone involved

The Children's Garden Network is about community - building common ground and connecting people and places together in a common effort.

An important part of Campaign 2010 is to engage the many people and organizations that can bring a healthy community spirit to your garden education program, including:

Garden, plant and flower clubs and organizations
Land trusts, Environmental and Conservation groups
Scouts
Seniors & Senior Centers
4-H Clubs
FFA programs
Boys and Girls clubs
Church groups
Colleges & Universities
Hospitals and Health Care Facilities

Community Building Tips

Invite members of your community from many different groups and organizations to participate in your garden education program's activities and events.

Ask them to consider holding a fundraising event for your program.

Invite them to build a companion children's garden at their location.
