• Pilgrimage
  Each year a trip is planned for the members of KGC. This is an educational opportunity for members to gain a broader knowledge of gardens and gardening from experts in the fields of horticulture and floral design. Some of the past trips have included tours of Brookwood Community in Katy, the Wildseed Farms in Fredricksburg, Shangri-La Gardens in Orange and the gardens in Natchitoches, Louisiana. The trip corresponds with the regular meeting day in April. In April 2011 KGC will travel to the Dallas – Ft. Worth area to tour the State Garden Club Headquarters, the Dallas Arboretum, and wineries in Grapevine.
  
  
• Community Share-A-Plant
  This is an opportunity for Garden Club members to share their plants and knowledge with the community. This is not a fund raising event. All plants are free.
  
  Share-A-Plant is held in the years that the club does not sponsor GardenScapes. The next Share-A-Plant will be in April 16, 2011.
  
  
• Flower Show
  The Kingwood Garden Club presents a standard flower show to showcase members’ horticultural and floral arranging talents every third year. Members display examples of their horticulture specimen and create unique floral designs for judging. After the judging the event is open to the public for viewing. This is an excellent opportunity for community residents to gain insights into what plants grow well in the area as well as inspiring ideas for using flowers and plant materials in arrangements in their homes. The KGC flower show will be held on March 31, 2011. Location TBA.
