The Fairview Park Garden Club was established in September of 2001.  The group's purpose was to inspire interest in the growth of vegetable gardens and flowers and to encourage their use in bringing enjoyment and beauty to homes and to the community.  In addition, the club strives to promote area conservation and to preserve and enhance the natural beauty of the City of Fairview Park.

Fairview Park Garden Club is a non-profit organization that donates funds and volunteer service for the planning and planting of more than ten Fairview Park city-wide garden areas, in addition to making various other donations throughout the year.  Past recipients have included the Fairview Park Hunger Center, Bain Cabin Restoration Committee and the Cleveland Botanical Garden Student Bus Program.  Membership is open to all adults and information will be available at the Summerfest tent.  Programs pertaining to gardening subjects are presented at each of the eight yearly meetings.

The Fairview Park Garden Club is pleased to announce that the "Fairview Park Showcase Garden Awards" Program is again underway for the 2008 season.  All Fairview Park residents and businesses are welcome to be comsidered for the award.

The purpose of these awards is to recognize residential and commercial properties located in Fairview Park for outstanding curb appeal.  The gardens are judged for garden and landscaping creativity, color, visibility from the street, functionality and aesthetics.  Members of the Fairview Park Garden Club visit local neighborhoods each week in search of winning gardens.  Fairview Park residents may also make nominations by calling Mary Hopkins at 440-331-9371.

From June through October, homes and businesses will be recognized with an ornamental sign placed in their garden for two weeks.  Pictures of the winning gardens will be at the Fairview Park Garden Club booth at Summerfest held this year from July 18 through July 20.  Photos will also be displayed here.

This program is sponsored by the Fairview Park Garden Club in conjunction with the Fairview Park Community Council.  For more information, please contact Mary Hopkins at 440-331-9371.
