The GCSB Conservation arm keeps the membership well informed on current conservation issues; to promote respect for natural resources and responsibility for environmental stewardship; to encourage clubs to identify and carry out conservation work locally; to provide environmental education programs for youth and the general public; and with the Executive Board’s approval, to work with other conservation agencies and organizations whose programs complement those of The Garden Club of America.
The Conservation Committee works closely with the National Affairs and Legislation Committees in Washington DC.
The Conservation Committee's work includes:
  • prepare reports on conservation work in the zones and areas of conservation interest to the GCA.
  • publish ConWatch, a seasonal publication highlighting key conservation issues and legislation.
  • plan and execute the annual Conservation Study Trip.
  • encourage the collecting and sharing of member submitted Conservation Showcase stories which feature conservation efforts by local GCA clubs.
  • solicit, maintain and support Partners for Plants projects.
  • honor club members, people and organizations by encouraging and approving GCA conservation and civic improvement awards and commendations.
  • create and update jointly with the NAL Committee the GCA Position Papers.
  • work with other conservation agencies and organizations whose programs complement those of the GCA.
