Do you love Gardening? Live in Summerton or around nearby Lake Marion in South Carolina? Then perhaps you ought to consider joining the Pink Dogwood Garden Club.


The Pink Dogwood Garden Club was organized back in 1937. It is located in historic Summerton, South Carolina. The club is a member of both the National Garden Clubs and the Garden Clubs of South Carolina. The goals of the organization include:

  • the advancement and understanding of gardening,

  • the beautification of the Town of Summerton, and

  • the improvement of ourselves, our homes, and our communities.


Garden clubs are an organized group of people with a shared interest in gardens, gardening, and plants. The first and oldest organized garden club in the US was the Ladies' Garden Club of Athens, Georgia, that was started in 1891.


Horticulture is the science and art of growing plants – e.g. fruits, vegetables, flowers. It covers the fields of plant conservation, landscape restoration, soil management, landscape, garden design, and more.
