St Clair Garden Club of Belleville, IL. Founded in 1929, it is one of the oldest garden club in Illinois.
Speakers are invited and we learn about subjects from the birds to the bees, the flowers and the trees (& the moon up above), and share information through “Show & Tell”.
There is a youth outreach, from elementary to high school age.
And anyone is welcomed to show off their floral arrangement skills, which reflect the season.
We have a flower show which is a great learning experience.
The summer months are spent on field trips to other gardens.
There is an Afternoon Tea at a member’s house and tour of her gardens.
We meet at Crehan’s Irish Pub (5500 North Belt West) in Belleville, IL. A warm lunch is served for the price of $13 to $15. We have a 50/50 drawing and if you win, it usually pays for the lunch. Meetings are the first Tuesday of the month from January to May, breaking for summer. We start meeting again in August thru December.
Our meetings are open to the Public and we always love getting new members.
Dues are $17.00.

I was contacted by a garden club in Belleville, IL, for information to tour the Rose Garden in Cape Girardeau, MO. I accidentally deleted the email. Did someone in your club or maybe you know someone in another club, who made this request.

The only club I know of that has visited this rose garden was the “Belleville Area Rose Society”. They do have a Facebook page, so that may be a way to contact them.
