What Activities Does Point Loma Garden Club Offer Members and Guests?

Updated

Point Loma Garden Club (plgc.org) is a San Diego–based group of community-minded gardeners, landscapers, and floral designers, and its activities center on monthly general meetings that combine a potluck brunch, a business/social gathering, and a program. Guests are explicitly welcome, so you can try a meeting before deciding whether to join. The club meets on the second Wednesday of each month from September through June at All Souls' Episcopal Church, 1475 Catalina Blvd., San Diego, CA 92107 — brunch at 9:30 a.m., meeting at 10:00 a.m., program following, typically ending around noon.

Is It a Fit for You?

The club suits two audiences at once: hobbyist gardeners who want informal learning and social contact, and professional gardeners, landscapers, or floral designers interested in shared study and networking. If you prefer structured lectures only, note that each meeting is preceded by a potluck brunch — a social format rather than a pure seminar. If you are considering joining, attending a single meeting as a guest is the lowest-commitment way to judge the program and the group.
