Why Join the Garden Club?
A garden club is the vision, plan and manpower behind community beautification. Whether it is welcoming neighborhood entrance gardens, partnership with the public works department, or holiday designs in public buildings, a garden club's presence is evident in our village.
Gardening touches everyone in some way. It can be beauty, color, solitude, food, memories, therapy, land value, exercise, attracting wildlife or just the thrill of making something grow.
 The Tellico Village Garden Club meets on the top floor of the Yacht Club (elevator available). Membership is open to any area gardener. Dues are $15 per family per year. Please wear name tags. Members are encouraged to volunteer their talents and to share ideas on programs they might like presented. Members are expected to help with refreshments at one of our meetings.
Garden Club members and guests enjoy speakers each month who entertain and educate on a variety of gardening topics. There are often plants for sale, as well as plants and other materials to give away.
Garden Club helps to maintain 21 Tellico Village Gardens. These can be seen at the entrances to Village Neighborhoods. Call Donna Olson (641) 583-0958, for more information.
We rely on recycling of aluminum cans to provide the funds we need to maintain the Neighborhood Entrance Gardens. Please bring cans to the boat docks or Public Works Department (Davis Ferry Road) in the main Village. In Kahite, aluminum cans are collected at the golf cart barn.
Garden Club Members enjoy opportunities for day trips.
Tellico Village Garden Club gives back to the community in many other ways.
- Donating to the local public gardens and other gardening related projects.
- Donating garden hoses to new Habitat homes
- Landscaping the women-built Habitat home
