Garden Resource Club (GRC)
The GRC is a club of gardeners of varying skills and abilities who are connecting to growing food, flowers and medicine together. It is completely free to join, and we ask our members to re-join every year for the new season so we can prepare the resources needed.
-
We stay informed with a weekly newsletter sharing events, volunteer opportunities and resources.
We offer exclusive resource access to Club members, like soil and compost drops.
We have monthly member meetings where we share food and our garden triumphs and questions, seeds and stories.
GRC Members get exclusive early access to our annual organic Transplant Sale.

We’re a nonprofit that relies on donations to help make Pontiac a better place to live and eat. But we understand that donating money isn’t always possible. If you’d like to support our work, consider donating your time as a volunteer! You can help spread the word, share your gardening knowledge, or pitch in however you’re able.
