Needham Garden Club

Club meetings are held September through May on the third Tuesday of the month (unless otherwise noted) in the Community Room of the Needham Public Library,
1139 Highland Ave. In 1939 it became an independent organization and was "Federated 1939." The club works with enthusiasm to provide educational programs to the entire Needham community as well as other clubs in the Metrowest District. Most of our meetings are open to the public, and are well attended. We provide Garden Therapy programs to 4 nursing homes, maintain a garden plot at Noyes Garden, and provide seasonally furnished urns and floral arrangements to the Library. We are members of the Needham Business Association and hold our annual plant sale at their Street Fair in June. In early December, watch for our sale of beautiful seasonal hand made wreaths and arrangements to adorn your home for the holidays. A few other Needham Garden Club Activities: Entries in Needham's Art in Bloom" organized by the Beth Shalom Garden Club using art created by Needham High School Students; Tri-annually, members create table arrangements for Needham High School's George A. Dennett Distinguished Career Award ceremony in recognition of outstanding alumni. In early December members create gorgeous seasonal wreath and table arrangements, which we then sell (our major fundraiser). A very popular event! The Needham Garden Club supports three scholarships. The first two are for club members only. The third is for a high school senior from Needham who intends to study Botany, Horticulture, Conservation, or Environmental Science. The Needham Garden Club is a member of: National Garden Clubs, Inc., New England Region Garden Clubs, The Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts, Inc., Metro District.
