About Us

The Holden Garden Club was founded in 1933 for the purpose of fostering an interest in gardening, horticulture and conservation.  The club is a member of The Garden Club Federation of Massachusetts,which expands the educational opportunities and the resources available to our members.

Eight “regular” meetings are held each year (usually on the first Thursday of the month) from September through April, at the Holden Senior Center, located at 1130 Main Street, Holden, MA 01520.   More than one-half of these meetings take place in the evening.

Members also enjoy the the Members’ Gardens Tour and the open-air Annual Luncheon meeting (which is held under tents in June), as well as the Annual Guided Tour at New England Botanic Garden at Tower Hill, which is held in August.

                                                                                                                                                      In addition, the Holden Garden Club offers several craft workshop meetings each year, which are focused on seasonal decorations or flower arranging.  Saturday excursions are also included, which begin at the Holden Town Hall, from where members carpool to noteworthy gardens or other horticultural sites.
