Garden Membership
So, joining HGNC is not just for growing a few vines of tomatoes or bunches of kale. Being a member at Hansberry is joining a team of generous and welcoming people, dedicated to sharing Mother Nature’s creative energy in southwest Germantown.
Cost of membership for 2022: $40 membership fee (plus a $5 key fee for new members).
Benefits of Planting Membership:
- One 4′ x 8′ planting bed OR membership in the Hansberry Gardening Collective
- Free access to the garden (after an orientation)
- Access to the tool shed, which contains a variety of gardening tools, helpful books, and even free seeds to get you started on your new bed
- Early access to our annual Plant Sale, members-only events and potlucks, and more
- Belonging to a warm, welcoming community that helps Germantown thrive
