The First Men's Garden Club of Dallas is a non-profit educational organization formed in 1941, incorporated in 1971 and affiliated with The Men's Garden Clubs of America/Gardeners of America in 1950 and the American Horticultural Society in 2004.

Funds raised go toward programs including: Community and school gardening projects, tree planting's and educational programs.

In 2005 the club joined forces with the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Society to sponsor a new collection of plants to be titled the Hardy Palm and Tropical Plant Collection. This unique collection will be the centerpiece of a new program to revitalize areas that have not kept up with landscape changes and new plant introductions over the years. Visit the Dallas Arboretum and enjoy this beautiful tropical setting. See more about our work with the Arboretum at the link on the left titled: Palm Garden.

In 2009 the board voted to change our status as a male only organization. The club is now open to membership regardless of gender.
