Gardening With Purpose

The first year of Gardening With Purpose has been an amazing success. In 2024 Michigan Garden Clubs, Inc. efforts contributed over 74,000 pounds to the National Garden Club’s Plant America-Feed America project. This represents 67% of the total recorded throughout all of NGC! We had clubs around the state participating, some donating thousands of pounds!

The recording of the NGC Webinar Feed America is now available in the video cafe on the NGC Website.

The project was awarded the NGC Award of Excellence at the 93rd Annual NGC Convention in Charleston, South Carolina on May 23, 2025.

One hour Master Gardener Educational Credit is available by watching the meeting video located in the MGC Member Meeting Library. All of the materials presented in the Meeting are available there as well.
