The Garden Study Club was established in 1946 in the Martinsville – Henry County community of Virginia to promote interest and knowledge of gardening; to stimulate interest in civic planting and conservation; to aid in the protection of birds, trees, shrubs and wild flowers; and to aid in projects with the Garden Club of Virginia.
Please explore this site and learn more about our history, civic beautification projects, educational programs, environmental issues, and other important concerns of our club in our community and throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia.
