The Texas City Garden Club meets the 2nd Wednesday of the month (September – May) at 10:00 a.m. During the months of September, October and November, we will meet at St. George’s Episcopal Church, 510 13th Ave N., at the corner of 6th Street and 13th Avenue. The meeting will be in The Hope Community Center, which is the building closest to 6th Avenue. New Members always welcome!
The Texas City Garden Club began in 1933. The First President was Mrs. Florence Davison of the Davison Family. The primary mission of the Garden Club is to promote awareness of city beautification, the love of gardening and environmental concerns.
The Texas City Garden Club will host our annual Holiday Gift Shop Saturday, November 23, 2019 at the Nessler Center. Booths are still available. If you would like to participate, please contact Nancy Heard at 409-948-8497 or 409-771-5697. Garden Club members are already planting succulents that will be for sale at the Holiday Gift Shop.

In addition to the Holiday Gift Shop, other club involvement includes providing a $600 scholarship to a graduating TCISD senior, donations to the Shriner’s Children Hospital and the purchase of trees for Arbor Day. We are currently finalizing plans for our Wildflower Project, which will be a wonderful Spot of Beauty for Texas City.
As summer is drawing to an end and we are all looking forward to cooler weather, now is the time to start thinking about your Fall Garden. Cooler temperatures will make your fall vegetables taste crisp and sweet. Enjoy harvesting the best carrots, broccoli, red cabbage, beets, and kale for your family.
- That’s all for now ~ Keep Growin’ and Diggin’! Stay tuned for more good news from The Texas City Garden Club.
