Since our founding in 1993, Friends of Green Spring (FROGS) has been dedicated solely to supporting Green Spring Gardens, a 'must visit' horticultural, natural, and historic oasis in the Washington, D.C. area.
We list a few ways you can support our mission of "keeping Green Spring growing." If what you'd like to contribute isn't listed here, contact us. We welcome your ideas!

Parking donations
In 2013, FROGS began a parking donation program to provide additional support to our Frances M. Tyler Children's Education Fund. All receipts collected from the two parking boxes in the Green Spring Gardens parking lot are deposited into this fund, established in 2006, to subsidize fees for students and schools with limited financial resources, so they may enjoy the many learning opportunities Green Spring Gardens offers. Since its inception, FROGS members have generously funded this program.
The suggested donation per car is $5 per visit or $25 per year, requested only of those who drive to the park. Parking donations are voluntary.
