The mission of the Fuquay-Varina Garden Club in North Carolina is to encourage interest in the art of gardening, garden design, flower arranging and horticulture while improving the environment through beautification, protection and conservation. We meet the third Thursday of the month January-May & September-December. General meetings are held at The Fuquay Varina Woman's Club Clubhouse located at 602 N. Ennis Street. Join us at 7:00 PM for a guest speaker and light refreshments. The first two meetings are free. Want to know more? Read ABOUT US, contact us at GardenClubContact@gmail.com, &/or Like us on Facebook!
Our monthly meeting will take place Thursday, September 20th, at 7:00 PM. This month our speaker will be Frank Schwartz who specializes in water gardens. Based in Raleigh, Frank will enlighten us on how to create a quality water garden design. He will also discuss hardy and tropical waterlilies, lotus, shallow water plants and pond fish. We hope to see you at the Woman's Clubhouse located at 602 N. Ennis Street. Guests are welcome to visit and choose to stay for our business meeting.
Although we don't have formal club meetings during the summer we are still an active group! We have been on field trips, visiting member's gardeners and working at Herbert Akins Elementary School courtyard. We welcome you to join us in learning about gardening, plants, etc. and working to help our community. Meetings take place in the evening and field trips can be organized on Saturdays or during the week.

The Best Entryway Award Winner
Congratulations to Becky who lives at
1530 Old Sexton Place!
A committee of Garden Club members rotate seasonally through Fuquay-Varina neighborhoods to award one residence for the most welcoming and creative entryway. It doesn’t matter if your “style” of décor is rustic, whimsical or elegant; we are looking to award one household for a display of Southern Hospitality with seasonal interest & color.
