WELCOME TO THE

ITHACA GARDEN CLUB

​Since 1922, the Ithaca Garden Club has been enriching its members with fellowship and programs in horticulture, floral design and a variety of general interest topics by experts from near and far.

​Fundraising events by the Club have enabled us to give back to the Ithaca community in diverse ways, such as the “Garden Trail” plantings of trees on Arbor Day and along Crabapple Grove, forsythia shrubs, mass plantings of daffodil  and other flower bulbs, and many complete gardens, including the Stewart Park Memorial Flagpole.
