About Us

GET TO KNOW THE GARDEN CLUB OF MADISON

Founded in 1924, the Club is a non-profit organization dedicated to sharing the art, science and pleasure of gardening, horticulture, artistic design and environmental conservation. Club members attend educational and entertaining meetings, and take part in workshops and civic beautification projects that preserve natural resources and enhance our town.

 

CO-PRESIDENTS' MESSAGE

As we embark on a journey from 2024 to 2025, we are filled with optimism and excitement for the future of the Garden Club of Madison. With the Club’s successful Centennial Celebration throughout 2024, we continue to dedicate ourselves to beautifying and supporting our community while nurturing the natural world around us.

Looking ahead, our focus remains steadfast in fostering a deeper connection with nature through our collective passion for gardening. Our Club will continue to promote sustainable practices and innovative gardening techniques to benefit our environment. We plan to deepen our understanding of floral design techniques and explore the creativity that flowers bring to our lives with hands-on workshops, guest speaker lectures and collaborative design projects. We will continue to complement Meals on Wheel with “Petals with Plates” and provide educational programs to our community’s students.

In the coming year, we encourage each of you to actively participate in the Club’s activities through our regular meetings, workshops, garden tours, civic gardens or community outreach programs. Your ideas, enthusiasm and expertise are invaluable in shaping the future direction of our Club. Let’s also celebrate our achievements and acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our members. Together we can create beautiful gardens, educate others about the joys of gardening and make a positive impact on our environment.

We are honored to serve as your Co-Presidents and look forward to working alongside each of you to make the 2024–25 term memorable and successful.  

 

Warm regards,

Sue Kelley, Co-President
Marleen Pacelli, Co-President
