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.

They instantly started eating through the tree mesh bags leaving nothing but bags of sugar apple seed hanging from the tree or strewn about around the garden to never be reused again and chucked as trash. The metal pool screening started being gnawed at in the thinnest areas within a

There was a delay, so our shipment of Vego beds will not arrive until Monday, but we still got things prepped today. All the D row bed frames were taken apart and removed in readiness for the new beds to arrive. Today, our garden leader, Frankie, (he's only 14 years old) learned how to use a power drill to take apart the in-ground cedar bed frames.
