Chester Garden Club
About Us
The Chester Garden Club is a not-for-profit organization created by a group of local gardening enthusiasts in Chester, NJ in 1967.
The main objective of our club is the promotion of general interest in gardening and the advancement of horticulture, conservation, the environment, and civic beauty. To accomplish this, the club members are involved in various projects throughout the year.
They are responsible for planning and planting the tubs on Main Street, planting and maintaining the garden at the Gazebo and providing monthly flower arrangements for the Library. Feel free to contact us to learn more about the club and our current programs.
