ROOTED IN THE FLORIDA KEYS

A little paradise. A growing community.

The Marathon Garden Club was organized in 1955 by a group of civic-minded residents who wanted to help improve the appearance of the area. In addition to its community involvement, the club encourages members to improve the gardens and landscaping of their own homes and neighborhoods. Classes are taught by local experts on topics such as floral arrangements, landscape design, conservation, and orchid growing. In addition to ongoing plant sales, the group hosts a Jamboree in January.

The Marathon Garden Club is the perfect place for your next event in the Florida Keys, whether it be a meeting, party, wedding, reception, shower – you name it! Our indoor clubhouse and outdoor gardens provide the right setting for you and your guests. 

Plant Nursery

 

The plant nursery, located at the Garden Club, is now open every Thursday morning, 9 a.m. to noon for sales. We have a wide selection of plants and small trees that we have grown in the nursery. Come by and check us out and browse the gardens. Our Master Gardeners are hard at work keeping the gardens looking great. They are available to answer your questions or help you choose the perfect plant(s) for your garden.

Our Gardens are Blooming

 

Our new Butterfly Garden holds a diverse range of butterfly species, including common and rare varieties. The Marathon Garden Club is actively working to protect butterfly habitats and promote awareness about their ecological importance.

Scholarships

 

We work hard to raise money for the community, and we gave away $4,500 in scholarships last year!
