About Us

2020 marks our 75th anniversary!

Since 1945, our members have shared information about successfully raising vegetables and ornamentals without using harsh fertilizers and toxic pesticides that that harm the soil and disturb the ecological balance. Our meetings are free and open to the public and are held the second Monday of each month except December. We have great speakers and knowledgeable gardeners to help with all of your gardening questions.
The club's philosophy is that human and animal health depends on the health of the soil that produces their food. Healthy soil, which is rich in organic matter, abounds with organisms that convert minerals in the soil into forms plants can use. The well-nourished plants growing in these soils are better able to defend themselves against attacks from insects, diseases, and other pests.

Read the letter of congratulations from the Executive Director of the Rodale Institite on AOG's 70 years of service, a proclamation from the City of Austin declaring August 11, 2015 as Austin Organic Gardeners Club Day, and a brief history of the clubaog-history.pdf from the daughter of one of the founders.

See us with Tom Spenser on Central Texas Gardener - you can watch the 
interview with Forrest or the whole show. You can also scroll through CTG blog photos to see AOG gardens and gardeners.
