Chapters are required to meet a minimum of five (5) times per year. A meeting can be defined as any event that includes professional development, networking or Green for Life promotion at the local level. These include home and garden shows, golf tournaments or other special events, as well as educational meetings.

Chapter meetings run from September through April. Meetings take a break for the summer when member companies are at their busiest times for work.​
