Organized 1924
Federated 1925

The Woodstock Garden Club was organized by 22 women in 1924 and federated in 1925. The objectives of our club are to study gardening in all of its aspects, to preserve conservation of our natural resources, to encourage civic beauty and to cooperate with other agencies furthering the interest of horticulture and conservation.

Our members have enjoyed excursions to interesting nurseries, public and private gardens, areas of local interest, and a guided tour of a fen. All destinations were within driving distance from Woodstock, IL. The club meetings have a variety of formats. They have included speakers, demonstrators, slide presentations and instructional workshops. Luncheons, dessert meetings, sack lunches, picnics or fine dining have been included with most of our programs.

The club encourages members to attend District I meetings of the Garden Club of Illinois, the National Council of State Garden Clubs, to participate in and attend Flower Shows, to attend Flower Show Schools and Landscape Design Schools, to visit each other’s gardens and to share plants and horticulture knowledge. We have fun, develop close friendships and have a common interest in nature, in our community and environs.

Anyone interested in gardening and living in the Woodstock Illinois area can become a member after attending 2 meetings as a guest and filling out a membership application.
