Connecting Water Gardeners Across Colorado
Since its founding in 1983, the Colorado Water Garden Society (CWGS) has promoted the appreciation, study, and enjoyment of water gardening in the Rocky Mountain region. We bring together enthusiasts of aquatic plants, fish, and pond ecosystems to educate, inspire, and build a thriving community. Through our events, plant sales, newsletters, and volunteer opportunities, we help water gardeners learn and grow — all while fostering stewardship of aquatic habitats.
