This year 2009, we are celebrating the 75th Anniversary of the Martha Washington Garden Club being federated.  The club was organized in 1926 and became federated on February 20, 1934. Since the founding of the club it has seen 47 members serve as president. 

Today the club has 65 members, which are women of all ages who enjoy flowers and gardening.  We maintain gardens at the LeMoyne house, Washington County Fairgrounds and the Veterans Rose Garden. 

Currently we are raising money to buy a new fence for the historical LeMoyne House.  We also decorate the LeMoyne House and fence each Christmas. 

Each year we have a beautiful flower show which enables member to show their talents in flower arranging.  This year’s flower show theme is “Diamond Jubilee”. One can only imagine each entry being a special jewel.  Come let us join together and make this a shining and memorable 75th anniversary year.
