Growing a Greener Village... One Garden at a Time
About Us
​

Since 1958, the Whitefish Bay Garden Club has been protecting natural spaces for wildlife and people, beautifying civic grounds, and stimulating an interest in horticulture and home gardens. In 1968 the Club reached outside of our community to found Riveredge Nature Center in Saukville, a growing and thriving space for learning and experiences grounded in our natural world.

​Recently we have established several projects in our village: incredible enhancements to Silver Spring Park, weeding Klode Park, becoming a Bird City and a Monarch City, supporting Bay Day, establishing the Cahill Butterfly Garden and the Lydell Community Center garden, 
remembering our neighbors facing hardships through our Forget-Me-Not program, and hosting the first Garden Walk in the Bay in 2017 (and one to come Saturday July 20, 2024!).

We are committed to continuing our mission into the next decade: Growing a greener village… One garden at a time.
