About

Founded in 1973, the Garden Club of Weaverville is a co-ed, non-profit organization open to everyone.  The meetings and programs are free and open to the public.  Some special events are for members only.

Our mission is to contribute to the knowledge and enjoyment of gardening, to promote beautification and conservation and to promote and encourage community interest in gardens and gardening through participation in educational programs.

The Garden Club of Weaverville is incorporated as a non-profit corporation under Section 55A-2-02 of the General Statutes of North Carolina. The Club is a federal 501(c)(3) charitable organization and its assigned Employer Identification Number (EIN) is 47-1078787. Donations to the Club are tax deductible.

Membership is open to everyone. Annual dues of $20 are taken and participation choices are always voluntary.  Just come to a meeting and discuss with anyone there about joining or send a message to us from our Contact Us page. You will get the most out of being a garden club member if you join a volunteer group: beautification, promotion and website, programs, hospitality, fund raising and other positions.

We support the following organizations:

  • Asheville Botanical Gardens  –  beautiful, thoughtfully composed meadows and woodland plant communities, and local resource for learning about our native plants and their importance.  Programs are offered throughout the year highlighting our local vegetation.  The Gardens hosts over 600 species of plants native to the southern Appalachians.  Peak season for blooms at the Gardens is April through June.  The Gardens are open 365 days a year and admission is free. The Asheville Botanical Gardens are solely supported by volunteers, donations, and grants.
  • American Chestnut Foundation – whose mission is to “restore the American chestnut tree to our eastern woodlands to benefit our environment, our wildlife, and our society. The American Chestnut Foundation is restoring a species – and in the process, creating a template for restoration of other tree and plant species.”
