Garden Club
The Darien Park District Garden Club was established in November 2001 and was created to offer area gardeners the opportunity to gain more knowledge relating to cultivating gardens and landscapes, to give gardeners the opportunity to share their gardening skills and to encourage a greater sense of pride for, and preservation of, the natural environment.
The Darien Park District Garden Club is a not-for-profit gardening organization.
Dues are $20; guests may attend two meetings prior to completing a membership application and paying dues.
