State, Regional, and National Awards are many and varied. Many projects are eligible to be applied in several different award categories. If chosen as a state winner, they are rewarded with recognition for their work and have the satisfaction of knowing the completion of their project bettered their community.

A highlight of the annual Louisiana Garden Club Federation, Inc. convention, held in April, is the elegant and exciting awards banquet. The hardworking winners are asked to come forth and receive their awards and their applause. The awards are kept secret until they are announced at this event.

Award categories are also available on the Deep South Regional level and the National level. Most award categories strongly encourage cooperation within the community and youth involvement.
