The mission of the California Garden Clubs, Inc. (CGCI) is to foster an appreciation for the natural beauty of the State of California, and to encourage interest in horticulture, gardening, floral and landscape design. They aim to promote civic beautification, roadside development, conservation of natural resources, and coordinate efforts among garden clubs for mutual benefit and education, in cooperation with other agencies.
The California Garden Clubs Scholarship program aims to provide financial aid to students pursuing studies related to horticulture and the environment. Through this grant, CGCI supports the educational endeavors of individuals aiming to contribute to fields that align with their objectives of promoting horticulture, environmental conservation, and beautification projects.
