The Naperville Garden Club is a non-profit organization that has been active in our community for over 90 years. Through the decades we have fulfilled our mission to promote the love of gardening, floral design, and civic and environmental responsibility. This recent NCTV17 Spotlight Interview gives some great information about our club.
The tradition is being carried forward through our 2019-20 activities, community projects , and scholarships. Our annual Cup of Cheer™ fundraiser and dedicated members are the means for our accomplishments. Our next General Meeting will be Wednesday, January 22nd at White Eagle Golf Club. Guests of members as well as the general public are welcome. Tricia Bethke, the Forest Pest Outreach Coordinator from the Morton Arboretum, will present a program on “Invasive Species”. Reservations are required by January 16th and may be telephoned to Barbara at 630-650-4405. If you are interested in becoming a member , contact us — we're fun as well as dedicated! — Marilyn Schweitzer, President |

Founded in 1929, we have been active in the Naperville area in community projects promoting our mission. Since 1978, we have been awarding scholarships to students pursuing degrees related to horticulture, earth science, botany, or conservation. Much of this is made possible through our annual Cup of Cheer™ fundraiser. Please contact us or follow us on facebook and instagram.
