Who We Are.
The Eugene Garden Club organized on April 28 1927 and became a member of the Oregon State Federation of Garden Clubs in 1929. The club formed to stimulate the love of gardening, horticulture and floral artistry; to aid in the protection and conservation of plants, trees and birds; and to promote civic beauty and community welfare.
The Eugene Garden Club is a tax exempt public charity under Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is organized exclusively for charitable, educational, scientific and benevolent purpose.
Eugene Garden Club News
The Eugene Garden Club regrets announcing that there will be NO holiday greens sale this year.
The Eugene Garden Club members always look forward to creating unique and beautiful wreaths and other holiday decoration that are always fresh and long lasting. We will miss seeing faithful long-time buyers and friends sharing the past year's events over a cup of coffee and those special homemade cookies. By December 2021 we sincerely hope most of the COVID-19 virus issues will be behind us and we will be announcing a holiday greens sale in 2021.
In addition, there will be NO garden club meetings at the club house until the end of March 2021.
At that time, we will evaluate the latest guidance from health and government officials and to decide if the clubhouse will be open tor our monthly garden club educational programs and also available for community groups to rent.
