Magnolia Joy of Gardening

The Magnolia Joy of Gardening Club was formed by a group of dedicated gardeners in 1995 who wanted
to share their love of gardening, learn more about the practice of gardening, exchange ideas and
socialize. The Club is still going strong with a great roster of members!

Where we meet:  Magnolia Community Hall
When we meet:  Every 3rd Wednesday of the month from 7:00 - 9:00 (except for July, August, and December).

Note:  Some meetings include a pot luck supper or BBQ on which days we start at 5:30 or 6:00pm.

Membership Dues: $20/year

If you're not currently part of the group, please contact us, to confirm dates and times below, in the event that there are any changes: magnoliajoyofgardening@gmail.com.

Did you know?

The Magnolia Joy of Gardening group will celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2025.

 

Meetings

Each meeting begins or ends with a short business meeting as well as one or more of the following:

  • Creating a garden focused project/craft.
  • Plant exchange in May and September (along with a BBQ) to share perennials, seeds, seedlings, books and produce
  • Summer tours of our members gardens, local greenhouses and other sites. The member
    garden tours are a real highlight, being a lovely social occasion as we wander through the
    gardens, find new ideas and have an afternoon tea!
  • Annual seed trials and rainfall tracking

We try to keep the "business" part to a minimum, and get on to the "fun stuff”!

New to Pickleball?

At the Magnolia Hall, we do not have quite enough room for a “legal” sized pickleball court but we have the area marked out for a slightly smaller court.

With pickleball, the goal is to have fun, and with the area available, we are able to do that for sure!
