Gardening is a joy... and gardening with like-minded friends is doubly so.  The Meridian Garden Club is a group of people who delight in gardening and have come together to beautify our community, to learn more about all things horticultural, to protect the environment and to share our knowledge.

To learn about the many ways we engage with each other and our community, we invite you to explore this site.  If you find our projects and activities interesting and would like to learn more, attend one of our meetings or click "contact us" on the menu above to ask a question.

Happy Gardening!

Building on the Million Pollinator Garden Movement
Picture

Michigan Garden Clubs, Inc. has a two-year initiative to register pollinator gardens in Michigan. When planning a garden consider the needs of pollinators and create a pollinator garden!
.
Basics: Food, Water, Shelter and Safe Environment
Food: Host plants are the food source for larvae/caterpillars. Plants such as: Fennel, Dill, Sage, Anise Hyssop, Asters, Bee Balm, Monarda, Milkweed or Butterfly Weed, Foothill Penstemon.  Extend the feast by using plants that bloom from early spring through fall to keep pollinators returning to a consistent food source.
Water Sources: Plan to keep resting spots such as rocks and shallow containers for drinking water throughout your garden.
Shelters: Open patches of bare soil and dead wood such as hollow logs and tree stumps provide nesting areas and shelter for bees, wasps and beetles. Bee and insect houses provide nesting sites and can be purchased or build your own.
​​
Register your pollinator garden at www.millionpollinatorgardens.org. It is free and only takes a couple of minutes. Choose National Garden Clubs in the dropdown menu as the Referring Organization.

The cheery pollinator garden sign at left is available from Michigan Garden Clubs, Inc. for $20.Click HERE for order form.
Buy a Brick for Breast Cancer Awareness
We invite members of the public to remember a loved one--a breast cancer survivor or breast cancer victim--with an engraved brick  installed in the Plant It Pink garden walkway.  A donation of $75.00 allows you to specify the message on a 4x8-inch brick paver and will help support the future maintenance of the Plant It Pink garden. The number of engraved bricks will be limited by available walkway space.  Click here for the engraved brick order form.
