Who is PGI Green Thumbs Inc?
Our Mission
The PGI Green Thumbs, Inc of Punta Gorda, FL is a nonprofit volunteer organization whose mission is to enhance the Nature Park's landscape, creating a place for community enjoyment and education. Green Thumb volunteers have designed and built garden beds emphasizing conservation, native plants and wildlife habitat protection.

Supporting Our Mission
PGI Green Thumbs depends on donors and volunteers to develop and maintain the gardens. We set aside 10% of all funds received for an endowment. This ensures future financial health of the Nature Park gardens, allowing future generations to enjoy this lovely masterpiece.
Please consider supporting us with your cash donations, either deposited in one of our collection boxes in the park or by mail sent to 1080 Coronado Drive, Punta Gorda 33950. If you provide your address, a receipt will be supplied.
