The Garden Club of Charleston, Inc. was founded in 1922 and is one of the oldest garden clubs in America. The club has a rich tradition of historic garden preservation and community-based service. As you stroll through beautiful, historic Charleston, South Carolina you will see the evidence of nearly 100 years of garden club member’s work throughout the city.  We invite you to explore our website, visit us for our annual House & Garden Tours and enjoy the holiday decorations that adorn the Joseph Manigault house each year.
