History
The Belleair Garden Club was founded in 1950, with the primary purpose, as stated in their charter, to keep the town of Belleair beautiful and enhance its value as a community. Over time, their goals expanded to include encouraging interest in gardens, homes, and parks.
The club took on ongoing landscaping projects within the community, including beautifying parks like Magnolia Park, Palmetto Park, and Gardenia Park. They also contributed to landscaping buildings and the Town Hall.
In 1974, the Town of Belleair proposed a land swap with the Belleair Garden Club: the club’s piece of land that the town desired for tennis courts, in exchange for Belleair’s Town Hall at 903 Ponce de Leon Boulevard.
In 1994, the building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places. The Belleair Garden Club continues to thrive, fostering a love for plants, flowers, and gardening while preserving its historical legacy.
We are celebrating our 75th Anniversary in 2025! Come join us as we continue with honored traditions while evolving with a new vision and vibrancy for our members and community!
