Welcome
Established in 1926, the Stonington Garden Club is a dynamic all-volunteer, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization whose purpose is to educate and encourage interest in the environment and conservation, support community projects, and stimulate the knowledge and love of gardening. Affiliated with the Garden the Garden Club of America, Federated Garden Clubs of Connecticut, Inc., National Garden Clubs, Inc., and New England Garden Clubs, Inc., the club has partnered with community leaders for nearly a century to positively impact the town and residents with lasting contributions through education, beautification, and environmental programs.


a legacy of giving
Following are examples of the club’s wide variety of projects supporting and engaging our community. The Lighthouse Museum Garden The Stonington Borough Post Office Garden Quiambaug Fire Station pocket garden Holiday Greens arrangements are created by our members for local care facilities bringing seasonal cheer to those confined to rehabilitation and nursing homes. Seasonal Wreaths crafted by members and donated by the club decorate the Stonington Free Library, the COMO, the Lighthouse Museum, the Captain Palmer House Museum, and the Borough Post Office. Club members also decorate wreaths for the Stonington Historical Society's Deck the Walls fundraiser. The Floral Booth at the annual COMO Village Fair sells bouquets and plants to raise funds for the COMO.
