About Us

Growing Happiness

The Milford Garden Club — firmly rooted in the Milford community.

Our Mission

More Than Just Gardens

At the Milford Garden Club, we exist to “Grow Happiness” — and to us, that means way more than growing beautiful gardens. It means growing within ourselves, growing our community, growing relationships and friendships, and growing in expertise and knowledge.

We are a local non-profit with a simple goal: to beautify our corner of the world and enhance the environment around us. We create our own gardens, support others on their gardening journeys, and maintain public gardens for everyone to enjoy.

We’re a welcoming community where ideas are encouraged. Whether partnering with local organizations, funding scholarships and grants, or connecting fellow gardeners — we believe happiness grows best when cultivated together.
