Arbor Day & Earth Day
The Elm Grove Garden Club takes pride in the beautiful parks and trees we have in our village. As the large mature Elm Trees continue to succumb to Dutch Elm disease, replacing them has become important to a community that has been a Tree City USA for more than 20 years. Our members support and help to plant trees in the village park or the club recognizes Earth Day in various ways.
Tour le Jardin - Garden Walk
In conjunction with the Mayfair Park Garden Club, our club organizes an annual garden tour in July.
This year, (2020) the tour will take place on
July 18th from 10 A.M. until 4 P.M.
Participating on the tour are 6 or more gardens that are owned and maintained by residents in the local community. Sunset Playhouse in Elm Grove serves as a starting point for the tour. Tickets can be purchased there the day of the walk. Vendors will also be set up in the Playhouse parking lot selling various garden related products. Please be sure to check out what they have for sale.
Not only is this a fun way to meet people with similar interests but also an excellent opportunity for inspirational ideas.
Funds raised from ticket sales are applied to scholarships and service activities of the club.

Annual Tea Party
Held in October, this is a not-to-be-missed fund raiser and social gathering for the community. Club members not only use their culinary talents to serve a fabulous tea/lunch, they provide the setting and floral display for the tables too. This event is held at the Sunset Playhouse in Elm Grove
After many years of annual teas, the club members have elected to forgo the tea this year. Plans for a new concept are being worked on. Please check back for new information.
