A conversation between two gay men about how current gardening clubs don’t really meet the needs of urban gardener’s led to the birth of “OutGardening.

Established in the summer of 2004, we’re a Phoenix based Out Gardening group, dedicated to …

• Creating a special sense of community and safe haven for all of our members




• Promoting love of urban gardening and sharing our knowledge of unique aspects of Arizona gardening




• Exchanging plants, seeds and advice about our horticultural successes, and unique plant interests




• Using our fabulous flair for creativity in community projects, and in our own gardens




• Investigating and touring garden related facilities and local points of interest
