Welcome to the Portland Michigan Garden Club! We are a community of plant lovers who share a passion for gardening, learning, and growing together.
Founded in 1987, our club brings together over 50 gardeners of all experience levels–from beginners planting their first seeds to seasoned growers with years of expertise (with a few who have completed the Master Gardener Program sponsored by the MSU Extension Service). We believe gardening is more than a hobby; it’s a way to connect with nature, build friendships, and give back to our community.
Throughout the year, we host workshops, guest speakers, garden tours, annual Geranium sale, and community beautification projects. We are responsible for the flowers you see at Scout Park, Burman Square, along Bridge Street and Maple Street, at the Library Fountain and downtown clock, and any miscellaneous planters throughout the city.
