We currently have 57 members.

In 2007 we volunteered:    602 hours in youth education
     179 hours in community education
  3,772 hours in support service
and we participated in 1,043 hours of continuing education.

Our major youth projects are the 4 children’s gardens located in New London,  New London Friday Group,  Waupaca, and  Iola.

We hold our annual spring and fall plant sales as our primary fundraisers. We donate gardening books to our local libraries, support the local food pantries, award a scholarship to a graduating senior going into the horticulture field, and act as superintendents in the plant and soil science area at the Waupaca Country Fair.

Our members volunteer their time in the upkeep of various community gardens in the area.
