Conservation Committee

The purpose of the Conservation Committee is to keep the GCC membership well informed on current conservation issues; to promote respect for natural resources and responsibility for environmental stewardship; to encourage members to identify and carry out conservation work locally; to provide environmental education programs for youth and the general public; and with GCC leadership's approval, to work with other conservation agencies and organizations whose programs complement those of The Garden Club of Cleveland.
