Welcome to the DeFuniak Springs Garden Club!

Visitors Welcome No Invitation Needed!

The DeFuniak Springs Garden Club is made up of a group of people who love flowers, plants and gardening. We meet the first Wednesday, (September to May) at 12:00 P.M. for a light lunch, a short business meeting and informative program not always in the same order. Sometimes we go on field trips to points of interest.

We participate in several activities, LakeFest in May, Peddler's Alley if held, and Home Town Christmas, as well as maintaining two city gardens, the Library Reading Garden and the Blue Star Marker.

The Library Garden is filled with native and easy care plantings.

The Blue Star Marker is the area at the junction of Highways 331 and 90.
