HISTORY
St. Anthony Park Garden Club is the brainchild of Ann Stout and Turid Ormseth, two like minds who thought there should be a local garden club for amateur gardeners. After an organizational meeting, our first meeting was April 1, 1997, at the St. Anthony Park Library. Many contributed to the organization of the club and by August we had 43 members. Today we are over 80 members strong.
