About

The Arizona Gourd Society was organized in May, 1998, as the "Gamma" chapter of the American Gourd Society. We consist of gourd "patches" throughout Arizona as well as individual members from other states that wish to support our group.

Do you belong to a gourd club that is not listed here? New "gourd patches" are always welcome! Contact the AzGS President for more information.

Each patch acts autonomously and is free to run their group in the manner that is best for them. The Arizona Gourd Society is here to provide your group with support and encouragement. Please contact one of our state officers for more information on making your club an affiliated gourd patch.
