Garden clubs
And there are opportunities to judge too ...
NAGC trains members to become qualified judges , acknowledged worldwide , in both horticulture and floral art . They are always keen to train up both floral and horticultural judges and have provided judges at previous World Shows too .
It ’ s for everyone !
You are most welcome to join a floral group or garden club of your choice . Families often come together and enjoy outings with raffles , where you walk away with an unusual or rare plant . So , whether you would like to learn about water wise gardening , design , compete in international floral competitions , make friends , become a judge or get tips on improving your garden , contact a club close to you and find out how to join .
