Our gift membership order form includes 2 options for activating your gift of membership:

Option 1: Activate Your Gift of Membership Immediately

Your gift of membership is activated immediately and the recipient will be notified by email. Your recipient will also receive a digital membership card by email.

While the membership is considered active immediately, please allow 7-10 business days for the notification email and digital membership card to be sent. In the meantime, you can share your confirmation email with the recipient to show when they check-in at the Garden.

To ensure your gift recipient is notified by Christmas day, please make your purchase by Sunday, December 15.

Option 2: Purchase a Gift Membership Certificate

A membership gift certificate lets your recipient decide when to start their membership. Your recipient has one year from the date of purchase to return the certificate to the Membership Office. Once redeemed, the membership is valid for one full year.

Your membership gift certificate will be emailed to you with 2 business days of your purchase.

To ensure delivery of your membership gift certificate by Christmas day, please make your purchase by December 19.
