Community Events
Rooted within the core of The Garden Club of America purpose, the NOTG stimulates knowledge and a love of gardening by sponsoring lectures, demonstrations, meetings, and projects, and by disseminating horticultural information to GCA member clubs and the general public.
Heart of the Park Hat Luncheon
Friends of City Park and NOTG invite you to join our annual endeavor of the Heart of the Park Hat Luncheon presented by IBERIABANK. 2019 was a tremendous success and we could not have done it without your support! We raised more than $300,000 for the trees of City Park and the projects of NOTG.
Proceeds from the 2020 fundraiser will continue to benefit the management and protection of the Park’s magnificent live oak trees as well as the community projects of NOTG. See our current projects >>
This year the Heart of the Park Hat Luncheon has been postponed due to COVID-19. Please keep an eye out for our rescheduled date!
