How to Join the Garden Club of Old Greenwich and What the Members Section Is For

Updated

To join, start at the Join Us page on gardenclubofoldgreenwich.org — it is the club's own entry point for membership interest. The Members link serves existing members rather than the public. The site does not publish dues, meeting schedules, or application requirements, so treat those as details to confirm directly with the club rather than assume.

What the site tells you

The homepage presents the club under the line "Growing with Old Greenwich since 1924" and lists a short set of navigation options: About Us, Join Us, Donate, and Members. Its own description names the club's focus areas as gardening, floral design, horticulture, the environment, and civic activity.

That is the full extent of what the public pages show. There is no published fee schedule, no calendar, and no stated membership criteria.

Joining: what to do

  1. Open gardenclubofoldgreenwich.org.
  2. Select Join Us from the navigation.
  3. Use whatever contact or inquiry route that page provides to express interest.

Expected result: you reach the club's own membership channel instead of a general contact form. Because the site does not spell out the process, expect to ask about dues, meeting times, and any application steps once you make contact.

Common sticking points

  • Looking for a sign-up form. The site does not indicate an online application. If the Join Us page offers only contact details, that is the intended route.
  • Assuming a cost. No pricing information appears anywhere on the page, so do not plan around a specific figure — ask.
  • Expecting a public calendar. None is shown; meeting frequency and timing are unknown from the site alone.

What the Members section is for

The Members link sits alongside public pages but is best read as a members-only area — a place for existing members to reach club information, not a step in the joining process. The site does not state whether it requires a login, so treat access as something to confirm rather than assume open or restricted.

Practical rule: if you are not yet a member, ignore Members and use Join Us. If you are a member and the link does not open, ask the club how access is handled.

Bottom line

Use Join Us to pursue membership and treat Members as the existing-member side of the site. Plan to ask the club directly about dues, schedule, and requirements — the public pages do not supply them.
