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

With great pride and excitement, we welcome you to the 2025-2026 year of the Garden Club of Madison. Our Club is a place where gardening, education and environmental stewardship unite to create beauty and foster meaningful connections. Our shared love for enhancing our surroundings not only enriches our community but also strengthens the bonds between us all. Together, we are creating a greener, more welcoming world—one garden, one lesson, and one smile at a time.

As we embark on another inspiring year, we invite each of you to take advantage of the many opportunities our Club offers. From our regular meetings with speakers and workshops to garden tours and community outreach initiatives, there are endless ways to get involved, share your passion, and make a positive difference.

This coming year, we are looking forward to an array of speakers and their topics: “Autumn Wildflowers of CT”, “How Trees Communicate”, “Do’s & Don’ts of Recycling”, “Gardening with Frogs and Toads”, “Snipped”– A Creative Floral Design Challenge, “Invasives”, and “Thieves, Charlatans and James Bond: The Murky History of Our Top Ten Plants”.

We’re excited to see you at our upcoming events and look forward to all that we will achieve together this year.

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