About Us

MN-NARGS is the Minnesota state chapter of the North American Rock Garden Society. Our members are from across the state of Minnesota, but most events take place in and around the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area. The chapter seeks to increase interest and disseminate knowledge concerning the culture of plants suitable for rock gardening in Minnesota. The organization also aims to support research regarding rock garden plants and their ecology.

Every year the group organizes a series of informational speaker programs and a plant sale that are open to the public. Members also volunteer to give classes to other garden clubs and help maintain the rock garden at the University of Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. Membership in the organization brings access to a regularly published newsletter, two annual garden tours and a spring banquet with a nationally recognized speaker. Join Us Today!
