Welcome to the Pompano Beach website Joanne Nelson, President of Pompano Beach Garden Club 2009-2011 Welcome to our website!  "Youth and Adults Growing Together" is this year's theme. Our main focus this year will be working and mentoring with children in our community to establish a Junior Garden Club.  Our members will provide educational programs on horticulture, floral design, gardening and care of the environment around us.  There will be a "Community Garden" located at the Pompano Beach Library where we will plant and maintain a vegetable garden this fall.  Our vision is to have the Junior Garden Club participate in the District XI Youth Flower Show in March 2010. We are always looking for new members and welcome you to attend a General Meeting.  Check out the dates and programs under "2009-2010 General Meetings and Programs."  For more information about our club, contact our Membership Chairman at 954-943-8487.   2009-2010 Goals of the PBGC Focus on youth programs to educate in being caretakers of the earth’s environment.
