The Trent Woods Garden Club is a Charitable Organization.

The Trent Woods Garden Club is an active member of the greater New Bern area.  In addition to an annual scholarship fund, our members provide and support local area programs for the young and young at heart.   The Bees is our Youth Gardener in-school program for local second graders.  Members visit the school monthly during the school year.  Volunteers from TWGC provide the children with a hands-on experience growing plants and instilling a love of nature.  At Garden Therapy, volunteer members visit a local nursing home to spread cheer, fellowship, and a love of plants.  Monthly craft projects are geared to bring a small bit of joy to our local elderly or infirm neighbors.  TWGC also hosts an annual Herb Sale to raise funds for our scholarships and various civic programs.  TWGC provides a scholarship to a Craven County student studying agriculture at college every year.  TWGC members believe that scholarships are a bedrock of providing our local youth with the advantage of a higher education.

Trent Woods Garden Club is an Educational Organization

Learning and sharing information is a principle of TWGC.  Every month a new informational program is presented to our members.  The wide variety of subjects includes:  planting, cultivating, flower arranging, environmental concerns, conservation, horticulture, beautification, and civic development.
