The Camden Garden Club is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. It does more than provide great gardening inspiration for local and visiting gardeners with the annual Tour. The Club is dedicated to furthering our younger generation's interest in gardens and provides support to those who aspire to become future professional gardeners by supporting education in the natural sciences. The Club is also responsible for keeping the pubic spaces in our town beautiful for the enjoyment of everyone. Tax deductible donations in support of these programs by the Club are greatly appreciated.

The Scholarship Fund
Since 1984, the Garden Club has supported students pursuing a degree in earth sciences such as horticulture, botany, landscape architecture or environmental studies by providing individual scholarships each May. Our annual campership to Tanglewood 4-H Camp enables it to aid local youth who want to focus on an environmental area of interest during their summer camp stay.

At the time, Emma was a senior at Clark University pursuing a degree in Global Environmental Studies and Lucas was a freshman at Yale University pursuing a degree in Economics and Ecology.
Beautiful Public Spaces
The Garden Club is responsible for planting and maintaining areas of Camden’s downtown district. This includes the Village Green, Chamber of Commerce planter, traffic islands near the library, the hanging baskets on the downtown street lampposts and the flower boxes on the Camden-Rockport Archway.
