Our Projects

The Blue Star Memorial Program was adopted in 1945 by the National Council of State Garden Clubs to honor the men and women of the armed forces.  Garden Club members visualized a living memorial, preferring to help beautify and preserve the country these men and women had fought for.  Over time the marker was changed to include the words " A tribute to the Armed Forces of America".  See the Fairbanks Blue Star Memorial located at 1215 Cowles Street, behind the Noel Wien Library in Weeks Field.  

Fairbanks Garden Club participates in the planting of the Golden Heart Plaza, the flowerbeds at Creamer's Historic Garden, and the hanging baskets for the residents of Raven's Landing Senior Community.  

Fairbanks Garden Club holds an annual plant and garage sale.  Proceeds from the sale are used to support an annual scholarship fund for continuing post secondary education. 

Fairbanks Garden Club has participated in this event held at the Noel Wien Public Library (1215 Cowles Street, Fairbanks, AK) for over 20 years.  The Holiday Trees are set up in the library entrance by community organizations to spread cheer during the holiday season.   

The Fairbanks Garden Club participates in activities that encourage youth to connect with gardening such as:   planting marigolds at the Children's Museum, participating in the seed game at Creamer's Dairy Days, and planting Golden Heart Plaza with our garden members.
