Who We Are
The Capitol Hill Garden Club brings together Washington area people interested in gardening, landscaping and the environment.
We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation.
What We Do
Members enjoy lectures, demonstrations, workshops and tours. These meetings include local experts on topics of interest to Capitol Hill gardeners, such as landscape design, ornamentals, annuals, perennials, native species, garden wildlife, pest control, container gardening, orchids, irrigation, xeriscape, and many more.
We undertake community projects and contribute to gardening and beautification projects in our neighborhood, e.g., the Club has donated spring flowering bulbs to groups and individuals for planting in public areas on Capitol Hill.
The Club income comes from membership dues, grants & donations, and other fund-raising activities.
Where We Meet
Special Events are held at selected venues on and around Capitol Hill.
