The Harbor Island Garden Club was organized in 1952. The present membership - forty-six (46) active members, twelve (12) honorary members and two (2) lifetime members - is comprised of beach residents, children of current members, or members who lived at Wrightsville Beach when they joined the club but later moved inland.
  
The Harbor Island Garden Club has a reputation for being an outstanding club, winning many awards over the years. Actively involved in community beautification, the club has worked closely with various city programs for environmental improvements. Each year, our members donate hundreds of volunteer hours to maintaining the island gardens, supporting our junior gardening program, raising funds, and preserving our coast.

Our organizational memberships include:
  • National Garden Clubs, Inc.
  • The South Atlantic Region of National Garden Clubs Inc.
  • The Garden Club of North Carolina, Inc., District 11

Our Heavenly Gather, who dost fee the birds and clothe the flowers and who knoweth and careth for every need of us.  They children, so enlighten our minds to use wisely all the gifts of Thy Mightily Hand, that we, being imbued with Thy Holy Spirit, may so work Thy Will that those who come after may mark their path by out footsteps. 

For all the beauty of the earth, Father in Heaven, we thank Thee.

For our families, our friends, our free and beautiful country, Father in Heaven, we thank Thee.

We beseech Thee for Thy great goodness and tender mercy to forgive our sins, and grant that as we work together in fellowship we may draw closer to Thee.  Almighty God, in whose name we pray ...

Amen
