Support

Join us. Help us grow.

SFA Gardens continues to thrive thanks to the support of our friends in the gardening community. Our members help make it possible for SFA Gardens to maintain six beautiful gardens and outdoor spaces, from the Mast Arboretum to the Mize Azalea Gardens. Funding from our members also helps us provide a wide variety of relevant environmental, educational and community outreach programs for school children, adults and families.

Considering a membership? We offer several membership levels, so you’re sure to find something that fits your budget. And many of our memberships come with extras like discounted seminars and early access to our popular Garden Gala and Fall Festival plant sales.
