Arlington Garden Club (AGC) is a meeting place where like-minded people join together and share their love of all things gardening and the great outdoors.
The monthly luncheon meetings are held at Gleneagle Family Restaurant. Program fee: $25 per person. Note: For special diets, you may call ahead and order a meal.
Guests are welcome! The public and guests of members are always welcome at our meetings. The two exceptions are the December Holiday Meeting and the June Fling, our last meeting of the year, where you must be a member to attend.
Social time and raffle. This is a good time to welcome new members and meet up with garden club friends. You can also purchase optional raffle tickets for a chance to win items donated by members or browse the free book exchange table.
Business report. At each meeting, a report is given on activities of the board and committees as well as upcoming events and projects.
Program. The main program, which covers topics selected by our members, is presented by gardening experts and speakers from around the Puget Sound area.
Sharing. Members are encouraged to bring items from their garden for 'show and tell.' These can range from simple cuttings placed in a vase to more elaborate arrangements. They are placed on tables as centerpieces to enjoy. You will also be given the opportunity to describe and name the flora and foliage in your arrangement.
The activities committee organizes field trips and fun activities throughout the year. We've found that members enjoy additional opportunities to get to know one another and share common interests. Photos of some of our recent activities can be found under AGC Club Happenings and include field trips to local nurseries and gardens, as well as workshops to craft unique garden art.
In addition to social opportunities, the Arlington Garden Club is active in the local community. The club's fundraising events support local scholarships and community beautification projects among other contributions voted on by the board. Read more information about our two major fundraising events, the Annual Plant Sale and the Holiday Garden Art and Crafts. Find information about our community service projects including our scholarship program.
In June, we celebrate our last meeting of the year before our summer break. This is a celebration for members only. Tables are lavishly decorated to coordinate with a theme. We all look forward to a silent auction with items donated by members. Our annual scholarship winners and Member of the Year Award are announced, as well as the installation of officers for the upcoming garden club year. View photos of this year's event below.

Each year the Arlington Garden Club honors a club member for their dedication. The award is presented at the June Fling.
We are thrilled to announce that the 2024 Roberta Lothian Member of the Year Award winner is Bea Randall (left), a past president and long-time AGC board member and volunteer. Handing her the award is last year's winner, Barbara Lindberg.
The award recognizes a member who has gone above and beyond for the good of the club, and who has participated in extra activities.
Congratulations, Bea! Well-deserved!
