The PoCo Garden Club is a non-profit gardening club in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia.
The club encourages the beautification of Port Coquitlam as a city of gardens, and enhances the enjoyment of gardening for its members and the community through:
educational speakers at monthly meetings- garden field trips
- special events like plant sales, plant exchanges, and open gardens
- local volunteering with community projects
Anyone with an interest in gardening is welcome to join. Our members range from casual gardeners to professional horticulturalists, and have a wide variety of interests including vegetables, roses, herbs, rockeries, greenhouses, and water gardening.
We’d love to hear from you! Please contact us if you have any questions, and come visit a meeting as our guest.
Hi there. I am interested in joining a gardening club. We live in Burke mountain which is officially Coquitlam. Do you have to live in poco to join.
Any fees?
Thanks
Lisa
Glad to hear from a potential new member! No, you do not have to live in PoCo to be a member! The current fee is given on the “Membership- How to Join” page. (Check for it on the menu bar at the top of this page.) Please join us at the next meeting! 🙂
I recently hosted an Open Garden, and was delighted to welcome approximately 35 PoCo Garden Club members. I gave a special welcome to new club members — it was good to meet you! If you haven’t yet opened your garden to the club, please do consider doing this. It is wonderful for members to be inspired by your garden, and doubly satisfying to have others compliment you on your work. No-one expects perfection so don’t feel intimidated. Just go ahead and sign up to be a host. You’ll love doing this!
We hope you will host an Open Garden again this year!
A great big thanks to our new blog editor Nora! We are so fortunate to have an expert looking after this!
Ahhh, thanks for the support! I’m delighted to be able to contribute to this great Club! 🙂 Nora
I would like to know more about the future events, thanks.
Thank you, Dorothy! We have now added a special page for upcoming events!
when is your annual plant sale. looked ALL over & can not find a time or place
This year we’ve added the Current Events page so it’s easy to find the plant sale!
What is your location?
When is your annual plant sale?
I am newer
The Plant Sale is listed in “Current Events”. Unfortunately it was over by the time you contacted us. Maybe next year!
Would love you to add after the words ‘community projects’ (see above) the last part of #2. b of our constitution “and thereby help to beautify a small part of our world”.
If you check the “About” section of the website, you’ll see that this lovely sentiment was added to the “Club Purpose”! Thanks for sharing! https://pocogardenclub.wordpress.com/about/about/
