Apollo Beach Garden Club and Community Forest Garden
We are a group of like-minded individuals who share their successes and failures about gardening and cultivation of plants in Central Florida.
Our organization strives to enrich outdoor garden experiences and education through programs, public awareness and expert recommendations.
The Club focuses on cultivation and propagation of native species, food crops, fruit trees and Florida-friendly plants.
Residents, friends and guests will learn about various plants, local environmental issues, and become more observant of nature.
