Join us on Thursday, June 5th for the 2025 Gardens in Bloom Garden Tour, hosted by the New Canaan Garden Club (NCGC). This exclusive, self-guided tour will offer an extraordinary opportunity to explore some of New Canaan’s most breathtaking private gardens that are otherwise not open to the public.
Our club participated in the Town of New Canaan 250th Parade held on June 27th. We celebrated our country, our town and NCGC’s long history in New Canaan.
Several NCGC members attended Wave Hill’s 2021 Gardeners’ Party on Thursday, September 30th to celebrate Louis Bauer. For nearly two decades, Louis has dedicated himself to Wave Hill, first arriving in 1994 to work under Marco Polo Stufano, and returning in 2014 as Director of Horticulture. He epitomizes the distinctive style of gardening Wave Hill is known for—intimate, adventurous and plants first! Under Louis’ inspired leadership, Wave Hill remains at the forefront of American horticulture; his impact will last long into the future.
Each week in January, NCGC members create the flower arrangements for the dining room and public spaces at Waveny Care Center. A longstanding initiative, this flower arranging program was conceived by an NCGC member and many other organizations in town send volunteers each week to brighten the building and bring cheer to everyone who lives, works and visits Waveny.
Over the years, the New Canaan Garden Club has asked members to volunteer and give of their time and creative talents to arrange flowers for the main rooms at Waveny Care Center in New Canaan for chosen months. This year the month of January was selected and each week, depending on how many volunteers signed up, they created flower arrangements to suit the setting of the room and make sure the flowers stay fresh-looking for the week they volunteer for.
