DVGC promotes community awareness and new membership by placing simple flower arrangements and garden club information at the Burke Centre Library information counter.  Each display draws attention to the club’s presence in the community and promotes community interest in the club.

Arrangements have included offerings of home garden flowers, succulents, potted bulbs, flowers purchased locally and a Lego arrangement made of Lego blocks.  Flowers are enjoyed by staff and the 350-400 people who visit the library each week.

The library is located just off the Fairfax County Parkway. Each member is responsible for keeping the arrangement fresh during her volunteer week, and for collecting her arrangement, vase, or plant after her week has concluded.

DVGC uses the Sign Up Genius app for members to register for a week to provide flowers at Burke Center Library. After completing the sign-up process, the "Thank You" page that appears has icons to add the item to your Google Calendar, iCal or Outlook calendars.

Thank you for your time and for volunteering!
